Detailed Solution

The above statement is true.
A convex lens converges light rays. Convex lenses are thicker in the middle. The lens causes light rays to converge as they pass through it (they converge). A convex lens is a converging lens. The principal focus is the location where the refracted light rays converge when parallel light beams travel through a convex lens. If refracted rays appear to diverge from a single point, then this is called the diverging behaviour of the lens.
