Solution

Place the object anywhere in front of convex mirror image formed is
(i) Between pole and focus position.
(ii) Diminished size.
(iii) Upright (erect) and virtual nature.
As the object is moved away from the mirror, the image shifts towards the focus and decreases in size but is (diminished).
