The most commonly-seen type of lens is the convex lens. This type of lens is often used for close examination of small objects, That result by itself shows the power of concentrated light from the sun. But there must be more to it than that. Let's see if we can define the behavior of lenses a bit more specifically.

; First, let's draw a diagram of a convex lens. This lens has two focal points, one on either side, and at equal distances from, the centre line of the lens. ... How does a convex lens magnify an image? Does it always magnify? To find out, you can draw a ray diagram to show the path of light rays through the lens.
