Physics

A thick lens has an index of refraction of 1.60. It is 4-cmthick and is surrounded by air. The radius of curvature of thefront surface is 5 cm, and the radius of curvature of the backsurface is 12 cm. A 1-cm tall object is placed to the left of thefirst surface. At what angle above the optic axis should a raystrike the front side of the lens 0.5 cm above the optical axis sothat it emerges from the back side of the lens traveling parallelto the optical axis?
