Detailed Solution

The given statement is true.
Virtual image:
Images formed when the light rays appear to meet at a definite point after reflection from the mirror is termed virtual image.
Real image:
"Images are formed when the light rays meet at a particular point after reflection from the mirror."
A convex mirror is also called a diverging mirror. Hence the reflected rays don’t meet at any point. The convex mirror always forms virtual images because the focal point (F) and the centre of curvature (C) of the converging mirror are imaginary points that cannot be reached.
