P2.1. Taylor series expansion of f ( x) about x = 0 is:

f ' ' (0) 2 f ' ' ' (0) 3 f 1V 4
f ( x) = f (0) + f ' (0) x + x + x + x +...
2! 3! 4!

For f ( x) = cos ( x) , f (0) = 1,

f ( x) = − sin( x), f ' (0) = 0,

f ' ' ( x) = −cos( x), f ' ' (0) = − 1,

f ' ' ' ( x) = + sin( x), f ' ' ' (0) = 0,

f 1V ( x) = + cos( x), f 1V (0) = 1

We can see that

x2 x4 x6 8
cos( x) =1 − + − +x
2! 4! 6! 8! − + − +...

and that

The following program evaluates cos( x) by both an arithmetic statement and by the

above series for -π ≤ x ≤ π in step of 0.1  .
