RAY DIAGRAMS FOR DIVERGING LENSES
1. ray 1 is drawn parallel to the principal axis and is refracted passing through the focal point.
2. ray 2 is drawn passing through the center of the lens.
3. ray 3 is drawn passing through the focal point and parallel to the principal axis.
The intersection of these rays at a point locates the image.
RAY DIAGRAMS FOR CONVEX MIRRORS
1. ray 1 is drawn parallel to the principal axis but light but light will not pass through the mirror and so it is reflected and broken lines are drawn passing through the other focal point.
2.ray 2 is drawn through the focal point but again light will not pass through thus reflected parallel to the principal axis extending a broken line to the other side.
3. ray 3 is drawn passing through the other center of curvature.
The intersection of these rays at a point locates the image.
