Detailed Solution

The above statement is true.
A convex mirror, also known as a diverging mirror, produces a highly diminished image. The image obtained is smaller than the object as we use the rearview mirrors in cars, buses, and trucks to see the vehicle on the back side of the road. For smaller images of vehicles, the diverging mirror is used as it covers a wide area which enables the driver to give a wide field of view.
