Correct Answer: Option A — 1 and 2 only
When an object is at an infinite distance from a convex (converging) lens, the light rays entering the lens are parallel to the principal axis. These rays undergo refraction and meet at the focus ($F_2$) on the opposite side of the lens.
Nature of the Image Formed:
Real: The light rays actually meet at a point, so the image can be caught on a screen.
Inverted: All real images formed by a single lens are upside down relative to the object.
Point-sized: The image is highly diminished, appearing as a tiny dot at the focal point.
