Resolving power webpages' link

[neelakash]

Can anyone refer me to some webpages that contain the expressions and derivations of Resolving power of microscope,telescope and simple triangular glass prism?I am not having a book and simple google search is not providing results needed.

What I want is the RESOLVING POWER FORMULA for a triangular prism,a microscope and a telescope.As far as I know,the theories for the latter two use the concept of diffraction through a circular aperture.

Please help me with it.

Thank you in advance.
