Well first off, convex mirrors are diverging mirrors, which means when they reflect light rays, the light rays never meet. The image that forms when an object is any length away from the mirror, the image is VIRTUAL and erect, the height of the image is smaller than that of the object, and the image is always between the focal point and the vertex of the mirror. Hope that helped!
