What are three similarities between concave and convex mirrors?
Both concave and convex mirrors can create virtual images, which are images that cannot be projected onto a screen. Both types of mirrors follow the laws of reflection, with the angle of incidence being equal to the angle of reflection. Both concave and convex mirrors can be used in optical devices such as makeup mirrors or security mirrors.
What is the State the differences between flat Concave and convex mirrors?
Flat mirrors provide a clear, undistorted reflection of objects with the same size and orientation. Concave mirrors converge light rays to a focal point, creating real or virtual images depending on the object location. Convex mirrors diverge light rays, producing virtual, upright, and smaller images.
Where do you find concave mirrors?

What are the two types of curve mirrors?
The two types of curved mirrors are concave and convex mirrors. Concave mirrors curve inward and can create both real and virtual images, while convex mirrors curve outward and only produce virtual images.
