A convex mirror is a part of spherical mirror, whose outer surface is reflecting.

A convex mirror always produces a virtual (image behind the mirror), erect (image formed above the principal axis) and reduced (size of the image is smaller than the size of object; hence magnification is less than unity).

Therefore, option (2); reduced and virtual is the correct choice.
