The figure shows four pairs of polarizing sheets, seen face-on. Each pair is mounted in the path of initially unpolarized light. The polarizing direction of each sheet (indicated by the dashed line) is referenced to either a horizontal $x$ - axis or $a$ vertical $y$ axis. Rank the pair according to the fraction of the initial intensity that they pass, greatest first
