The back. Just remember a cave is a hole as in concave. Convex is the opposite of concave.
concave and convex refer to the curve of the mirror. if it is concave, it curves in at the middle, like a 'cave'. if it is convex, it curves out at the middle, like an eye. think of a spoon - one side is convex, the other is concave. this curve will affect the image the mirror shows.
A spoon is concave, as its bowl-like shape curves inward. This concave shape allows the spoon to hold and scoop up food effectively.
A spoon has a concave mirror shape due to its curved inner surface. This type of mirror can produce both real and virtual images depending on the object's position relative to the focal point.
What a nice question. These two different images illustrate the difference between a reflection from a concave and a convex surface. However, if you look in a concave beauty/shaving mirror, you'll still find the image erect. For you will be closer to the mirror than the length of its focus. Enlarged a little indeed.
The spoon acts as a concave mirror at it's "loading surface". The idol of an object through a concave mirror which is further than the doubled focal length of it, is real, smaller and inverted (upside-down).
because one side is concave and the other is convex
The mirror on the back of a spoon is a convex mirror.
concave
a spoon is a convex mirror because it shows far objects in small sizes or it shows the far objects in a diminished size ...
The best example would be to take a metal spoon that is shiny. Look at the spoon so the curved part is facing away from you. The dip you can see is called Concave. The other side that protrudes is called Convex. When you look at the concave side your face will appear squashed, wider at the top and bottom but very narrow in the middle. When you look at the convex side, your face will appear wide and fatter, almost like a football. This is because of the light rays reflective at a different angle.

A convex surface means bulging out surface. A convex mirror is that spherical mirror in whichthe reflection of light takes place at the bulging out surface.A spherical mirror which is polished from hollow side, such that its reflecting surface is towards outer sideis called convex mirror.
