Answer 2

Answer:

1. A convex lens can be regarded as made of a very large number of portions of triangular prisms.

2. The bases of these prisms are towards the central thicker portion of the lens.

3. A ray of light passing through a prism bends towards its base.

Hence, a convex lens converges the light rays.
