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:
Between C and F
Real
Inverted
Diminished
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
