Detailed Solution

A convex mirror should be used in this case.
A convex mirror is also called diverging mirror because it diverges the light rays that strike it. This type of mirror always forms a diminished, erect and virtual image irrespective of the position of the object. Due to the property of making diminished images, it creates images with many details of the area, which helps to have a wide view of the area.
