and Coolum. Unification off A telescope is given by minus focal length off objective derided by folk. A lint off eyepiece. Um, where is the relationship between the Falkland off object to radios off? Correction is already my way too. Then it will substrate this value here. So substituting the values we get, the manifestation is minus are divided by two. Um, if e then substituting the values for our which is a 10 centimeter. You have a two times, though off there 10 meters here. Sorry. So meters, all times at three meters era fee, This gives us the angle of medication off. The telescope is minus 1.66 san.
