Solution

The correct option is A True
If the reflecting surface is curved outwards it is a convex mirror. A convex mirror always forms a virtual, erect and diminished image. A convex mirror is a divergent mirror i.e it has wide field of view. Hence, the convex mirror is used as a side-view mirror in vehicles.
