A ray that runs parallel to the principal axis.

               After reflection, the ray passing through the center of curvature retraces its path,
               and the ray parallel to the principal axis passes through the focus. After reflection,
               these rays intersect at a point between C and F.


               The image is inverted, real, and shrunk. The image is:

               When the Object Is Placed At the Centre of Curvature

               In this section, we will look at two rays, one parallel to the principal axis and the
               other passing  through  the  focus. After  reflection, the  ray  of  light parallel to the
               principal axis passes through the focus. After reflection, the other ray that passes
               through  the  focus  emerges  parallel  to  the  axis.  Following  reflection,  these  rays
