1 Converging Mirrors

2 Concave or Converging Mirrors Ex. Inside of a spoon

3 Rules for Drawing Ray diagrams for curved mirrors Start by drawing the three critical rays; 1. Incident ray that is parallel to the principle axis is reflected through the principle focus

4 2. an incident ray passing through the principle focus is reflected parallel to the principle axis

5 3. an incident ray passing through the center of curvature reflects along the same path
