Q17 of 27 Page 132

Figure Q-17 shows ray AB that has passed through a divergent lens. Construct the path of the ray up to the lens if the position of its foci is known. (AS5)

As it is given that the lens is diverging and ray AB is the ray after refraction. This implies that the Incident rays must be parallel to the principal axis making it appear to diverge from the focus after refraction.
