A lens that causes light rays to bend toward (away from) its optical axis is a converging (diverging) lens. By the end of this section, you will be able to use ray diagrams to locate and describe the image formed by a lens and employ the thin-lens equation to describe and locate the image formed by a lens.

(a) A real, inverted image formed from an object that is farther than the focal length from a converging lens. (b) A virtual, upright image formed from an object that is closer than a focal length from the lens. (c) A virtual, upright image formed from an object that is farther than a focal length from a diverging lens.
