A layered fault
A reverse fault is often found at convergent plate boundaries.
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.
A subduction zone forms
The North American and Pacific Plate boundary is an example of a convergent plate boundary, specifically an oceanic to continental convergent plate boundary.
Tectonic plates are separated by "faults," places where the structure of the Earth is cracked. Most earthquakes occur along fault lines.
