Hello Sadhin

I hope that you are doing well

Rules to be followed while drawing ray diagrams for concave mirror are listed below

  • A ray of light running parallel to the principal axis passes through the principal focus F of a concave mirror  after reflection
  • A ray of light passing through the centre of curvature in a concave mirror is reflected back along the same path.
  • A ray of light passing through the principal focus of a concave mirror becomes parallel to the principal axis after reflection.

I hope that you find this helpful

Thankyou
