Geometrical Construction of Images.—As shown in Figs. 14-15, for thedetermination of any point of an image, or the image being known, to determinethe corresponding part of the object, it is necessary to know the position of theprincipal focus (and there is one on each side of the lens, § 6), and the opticalcenter (Figs. 1-9 of the lens).
