When parallel waves (1), Fig. 106, strike the con-cave side of the mirror, they are reflected and so curved in thatthey converge at the focus and then diverge. When parallel waves strike the convex side (2), they arereflected and so curved out that they diverge and never meet. Rays. The curvedmirror is part of asphere and the cen-ter of the sphere isat.
