Answer:

The type of image formed on a screen by a convex lens is real, enlarged and inverted.

Step-by-step explanation:

A lens can be defined as a transparent optical instrument that refracts rays of light to produce a real image.

Basically, there are two (2) main types of lens and these includes;

I. Diverging (concave) lens.

II. Converging (convex) lens.

A converging lens refers to a type of lens that typically causes parallel rays of light with respect to its principal axis to come to a focus (converge) and form a real image.

Basically, the type of image formed on a screen by a converging (convex) lens is real, enlarged and inverted because it is usually thick across the middle (causing rays of light to converge) but thin at the lower and upper edges.
