Detailed Solution

The above statement is False.
A plane mirror always forms an image equal in size to the plane. A convex mirror always forms a diminished image. A convex mirror can never form a magnified image. The concave mirror always forms a virtual image; hence the images are always enlarged.
The correct statement would be that only a concave mirror can form a magnified image.
