Concave means rounded or hollowed like the interior of a circle or sphere

Also called as converging mirror.

Convex means rounded or curved like the exterior of a circle or sphere.

Also called as fish eye or diverging mirror.

The mirror coating of the concave mirror is on the outside of the spherical surface. The mirror coating of the convex mirror is on the inside of the spherical surface.

In concave mirrors, the center of curvature and the reflecting surface fall on the same side of the mirror.

In convex mirrors, the center of curvature and the reflecting surface fall on the opposite side of the mirror.

Focus lies in front of the mirror i.e. focal length is positive.

Focus lies behind the mirror i.e. focal length is negative.
