Show that when a plane wave is transmitted through a thin lens of focal length f in a direction parallel to the axis of the lens, it is converted into a paraboloidal wave (the Fresnel approximation of a spherical wave) centered about a point at a distance f from the lens. What is the effect of the lens on a plane wave incident at a small angle θ？
