a) For each lens, use the thick lens formulas given in class to find its lens power and locate
all of its cardinal points (P', F', N' with respect to the last lens surface and P, F, N with
respect to the first lens surface). Make a (good) sketch of each lens that includes the
location of the cardinal points. What is the front focal length? What is the rear focal
length? Is the absolute value of the front focal length equal to the absolute value of the
rear focal length? Why/why not?
b) For lens A, now use a brick diagram(s) to find all of its cardinal points and double-check
your answers from a) - they should be the same!
