iMac 21.5-inch (mid 2010)/Mac mini compatibility

Can anyone help me out: Is new Mac mini compatible with iMac 21.5-inch (mid 2010)? All I have found so far is that it works with the 27-inch model of the same year. I can no longer upgrade past iOS High Sierra and am looking for an affordable solution to upgrading. Nothing too fancy. Thanks.

No, only the 27" 2010 iMac can be used as a display.
