Answer:

<h2>FOCAL</h2>

Explanation:

The center of a lens is known as its optical center. All light rays incident on a particular lens converges at a points a point known as the principal focus or the focal point after reflecting. Note that all light incident on a reflecting surface must all converge at this focal point after reflection.

The distance measured from the center of this lens to its principal focus (otherwise known as focal point) is known as the focal length of the lens.

Based on the explanation above, it cam be concluded that the distance from the center of a lens to the location where parallel rays converge or appear to converge is called the FOCAL length.
