AI Generated Solution

To solve the problem, we will use the mirror formula and the magnification formula for a convex mirror. ### Step 1: Identify the given values - Radius of curvature (R) = 20 cm - Since it is a convex mirror, the focal length (f) is given by the formula: \[ f = \frac{R}{2} \] ...
