Newton's method of estimation - using derivatives
Homework Statement Newton devised the following method for approximating a real root of the equation f(x) = 0. i.e. a real number for which f(r) = 0. We begin by guessing an approximation, say x1, to the real root r. (i) Find the equation of the line tangent to the graph of y = f(x) at the...- Bruce3

Proving Euler's Formula using infinite series.
Homework Statement I need to show that both sin(x) and cos(x) are absolutely convergent. Here's my work so far, Theorem: ℯix = cos(x) + i*sin(x) (1) Proof: This...- Bruce3
