Two coherent point sources S(1) and S(2)...

Two coherent point sources `S_(1)` and `S_(2)` vibrating in phase emit light of wavelength `lambda`. The separation between the sources is `2lambda`. Consider a line passing through `S_(2)` and perpendicular to line `S_(1) S_(2)`. Find the position of farthest and nearest minima.
