The statement that describes a possible way to apply a concave lens is:
Concave lenses can be used in car headlights to expand the projected light outwards.
Concave lenses diverge light rays that pass through them, which can help to spread light outwards, making them suitable for use in car headlights to widen the beam of light. The other statements do not accurately describe common applications of concave lenses.
