The answer to this question depends solely on the angle at which the rays were bent. The convergence (and divergence) may be used to find the location relative to the bending point.

What is it called when light rays come together?

While the term light 'rays' is a 400 year old artifact and may give a misguided idea of what the visible part of the em wave spectrum is, the point at which the optical axis of a part of the incident plane of a light wave focused by a lens is called the FOCAL POINT of the lens. (It is not of course IN the lens).

Cancave mirrors are used in car head lights Why?

The light rays come together to make a bright spot of light. When a concave mirror is used in car headlights, a bulb is placed at the spot where light would come together. This has the effect of making the opposite happen. The rays of light shining out from the bulb are reflected off the concave mirror to make a strong beam of light, which travels out in front of the car to shine on the road.
