Figure 6.23 (See color insert.) Angles in the Maltese cross. The left panel shows a side
view with the lens and the normal to the surface for one ray, with light exiting at an angle
of θ with respect to the normal. The right panel shows the angle of orientation of the plane of

that it contains the origin and the point (x, y).
