Solution

The correct option is B False
Divergence or convergence of a mirror is decided on the basis of the behaviour of light when incident light rays are parallel. It can be clearly observed from the attached diagram that the reflected rays are also parallel in the case of parallel incident rays for a plane mirror. Hence, it is neither divergent or convergent in nature.
