Need help with the question in the attached picture, please be detailed!

A 2.00 µm-wide slit (assuming infinitely long) is illuminated with plane waves from a helium-neon
laser of wavelengths 632.8 nm. Find the distance from the zeroth-order maximum to the first two
irradiance nulls (zeroth to 1st and zeroth to 2nd), and to the first- and second-order irradiance maxima
when the pattern is observed on a wall at Z= 1.0 m away. The small angle approximation [sin(0) ~ 0]
is valid in some cases, but calculating the exact angle [x = sin 0 →
accurate answer in this problem.
e = sin-1 x] leads you to an
