The correct option is A

True


A ray of light passing through the centre of curvature of a spherical mirror retraces its path (gets reflected along the same path). As the ray of light passes through the centre of curvature of a mirror it strikes the mirror along the normal i.e. it incidences on to the mirror at 90 degrees.
