Solution

The statements regarding a convex mirror are as follows:

  1. Form virtual image only: This is correct. Convex mirrors always form a virtual, erect, and diminished image of the object.

  2. Always form diminished images: This is also correct. Regardless of the object's position, the image formed by a convex mirror is always diminished.

  3. Have a greater field of view: This is correct as well. Convex mirrors provide a wider field of view than plane mirrors or concave mirrors. That's why they are often used as rear-view mirrors in vehicles.

  4. Form inverted images of the object: This is incorrect. Convex mirrors always form images that are upright, not inverted.

So, the first three statements are correct, and the last one is incorrect.
