Answer:

The focal length is R/2 = 25 cm / 2 = 12.5 cm

A ray from the center of curvature is focused back on itself (R cm)

As the angle of the ray is changed to being parallel to the axis the ray from the mirror will be brought closer to the mirror      

f(parallel) < focus (back upon itself)

compare  angles of  incidence and reflection
