Find the Taylor series for cosx and indicate why it converges to cosx for all x in R.
The Taylor series for cosx can be found by differentiating [itex] sum_{k=0}^{\infty} \frac{(-1)^k (x^{2k+1})}{(2k+1)!}[/itex] on both sides...
But I'm not sure what the question means by "why it converges to cosx for all x in R". Isn't that just obvious, since the summation equals cosx...it obviously converges to it...
Thanks in advance
