In converging mirrors (such as concave mirrors), the images formed can be real or virtual, depending on the object distance. The image is typically magnified and can be either upright or inverted. In diverging mirrors (such as convex mirrors), the image is always virtual, upright, and reduced in size.
Diverging mirrors and lenses always produce virtual images that are upright and reduced in size. These images are located on the same side as the object being observed.
A converging lens causes parallel light rays to converge to a focal point, while a diverging lens causes parallel light rays to diverge away from a focal point. Converging lenses are thicker in the middle and thinner at the edges, while diverging lenses are thinner in the middle and thicker at the edges.
Converging lens is thicker at the center than at the edges and refracts light rays towards a focal point, forming real or virtual images. Diverging lens is thinner at the center and causes light rays to spread out, resulting in virtual images. The focal point of a diverging lens is on the same side as the object, unlike converging lens.
Diverging mirrors and lenses always produce virtual images that are upright and smaller than the object being viewed.
Mirrors, such as plane mirrors, reflect light rays back in the same direction. Lenses, on the other hand, refract light rays by bending them as they pass through, converging or diverging them depending on the shape of the lens. Both mirrors and lenses can alter the path of light rays to create images.

For apex learning people the answer is diverging
Smaller

Mirrors can reflect light rays, changing their direction without altering their wavelengths. Lenses can refract light rays, bending them as they pass through the lens and converging or diverging them to form images. Mirrors can create virtual or real images depending on the curvature, while lenses can produce real, virtual, upright, or inverted images based on the lens type and object distance.
A converging mirror is also referred to as a concave mirror. Its reflecting surface curves inwards and usually forms a virtual image. Whereas, a diverging mirror's reflecting surface is curved outwards and can form both real and virtual images.
These words can have different meanings depending on subject but in terms of visual (and typically keywords when dealing with 3d images): Convergence typically refers to the object a viewer is looking at. Divergence is when your eyes have to overcompensate for badly placed (usually by over-extending the pixel separation) stereo pairs of images to see one image. This can cause eye strain. Hope this helps a little
Concave and Diverging
A diverging mirror is a curved mirror that causes parallel incident light rays to diverge or spread out upon reflection. The most common type of diverging mirror is a concave mirror with a reflective surface that curves outward. Diverging mirrors are often used in optical systems to create virtual images that appear smaller and upright.
