A convex shape curves outward like a bowl, while a concave shape curves inward like a cave. Convex shapes do not make things upside down.
No, a convex mirror does not produce an upside-down image. Convex mirrors always produce virtual, upright, and diminished images of objects placed in front of them.
Convex bulges outward (thicker in the center than the edge)Concave bulges inward (thinner in the center than the edge)Convex lenses magnify when you look through then, concave lenses make things look smaller.You can focus a distant object to a point with a convex lens (the image will be upside down).
A convex lens can make an object look upside down when the object is placed closer to the lens than its focal point, resulting in a virtual image being formed. This virtual image is then magnified by the lens, causing the observer to perceive the object as upside down.
The difference between concave and convex is that convex lenses are the type of lens that make images bigger, while concave make images smaller. Still confused, maybe this will help. When you think of concave think of a cave, how you can see a small image at the end of the cave, while convex is the opposite.
Examples of planes are bathroom mirrors, windows, and floors. A concave mirror example is a makeup mirror, which magnifies the reflection. An example of a convex mirror is a security mirror, which gives a wider field of view.

Concave is thinner in the center than the edges and convex lens is thicker in the center than on the edges :)
Concave mirrors are bent in a way that makes you look upside-down. Convex mirrors, on the other hand, are bent in the opposite direction to make you look bigger. If you have a clean and dry spoon, you can look at your face on either side of the spoon, and you'll see your face either upside-down or enlargened. The bending of concave mirrors cause light to bounce in opposite directions when light hit the mirror, so every particle of you and your surroundings would be the opposite of what it really is.
Well, isn't that a happy little question! A jeweller's mirror is usually concave, which means it curves inward like a bowl. This helps magnify the reflection and make it easier to see small details while creating beautiful pieces of art. Just remember, whether concave or convex, mirrors always reflect the beauty that's within you.

Lenses may be planar, convex, or concave.
Convex lenses converge light rays and focus them to a point, causing them to cross over. When these crossed-over rays hit the back of our eye or a screen, it creates an upside-down image. This phenomenon is due to the way light rays refract and converge through the lens.
Both concave and convex mirrors will distort the image of the face if used when applying make-up. Which is why flat mirrors are used instead.
A lense which bulges outwards is a convex lense.Additionally, a lense which bulges in is called a concave lense. You can remember the difference by thinking about the fact that a cave is like an inward bulge in a cliff, and the inward-bulging lenses are concave.
