How to: crop and resize using imagick PHP

$im = new imagick("c:\\temp\\523764_169105429888246_1540489537_n.jpg");
$imageprops = $im->getImageGeometry();
$width = $imageprops['width'];
$height = $imageprops['height'];
if($width > $height){
    $newHeight = 80;
    $newWidth = (80 / $height) * $width;
}else{
    $newWidth = 80;
    $newHeight = (80 / $width) * $height;
}
$im->resizeImage($newWidth,$newHeight, imagick::FILTER_LANCZOS, 0.9, true);
$im->cropImage (80,80,0,0);
$im->writeImage( "D:\\xampp\\htdocs\\th_80x80_test.jpg" );
echo '<img src="th_80x80_test.jpg">';
