                       Image Formation in Lenses Using Ray Diagrams
                          o  Ray diagram helps us to study the nature, position and relative size of
                              the image formed by lenses.
                          o  For drawing ray diagrams we first consider how light rays falling on
                              both concave and convex lens in three different ways get refracted.
