reverse
A reverse fault generally occurs at a convergent boundary where two tectonic plates collide and one is forced over the other, causing compression and uplift of the Earth's crust.
A strike-slip fault generally occurs at a transform boundary
Along a convergent plate boundary, you typically find a reverse fault or thrust fault. This type of fault occurs when the two tectonic plates are pushing against each other, causing one plate to be forced up and over the other plate. This movement can lead to earthquakes and mountain building.
In an ideal world this would be a margin that involves some element of compression, so you're looking at a compressional (orogenic) or subducting margin. Anywhere where the crust is thickened generally involves reverse, also known as thrust, faulting.
A convergent boundary is a type of fault where two tectonic plates collide, causing compression forces that lead to the plates being pushed together. This can lead to the formation of mountain ranges, deep ocean trenches, and powerful earthquakes.

You can find it on a convergent boundary
Reverse
A convergent boundary is a reverse fault. It's a reverse fault because it it pushing together, while a divergent boundary is a normal fault because 2 plates are pushing away from each other.
