Solution

For concave mirror, due to the shape of the reflecting surface the parallel rays converge at some point whereas in convex mirror they diverge away. For plane mirrors there's no convergence or divergence in reflected rays. The parallel incident rays are simply reflected back as parallel rays, with their angle of reflection equal to their angle of incidence.
