Solution

The correct option is A True
  1. For an incident ray directed towards the center of curvature of a spherical mirror, the reflected ray retraces its path as shown in fig.
  2. The reflected ray retraces its path as the ray passing through the center of curvature of the mirror is normal to the mirror or the angle of incidence is zero and hence, it retraces its path.

Hence, the given statement is TRUE
