Concave lenses can be used in car headlights to expand the projected light outwards.
Reason: concave (diverging) lenses spread light rays outward. The other choices describe converging/incorrect uses (microscopes and focusing lasers need convex lenses; the mirror statement is wrong/混es mirror vs lens).
