Consider the following functions f(x) = sin(x) and g(x)
(a) Determine the linearization functions, L₁(x) and L₂(x), for f(x) and g(x), respectively
at the center x = T.
(b) Use L₁(x) and L₂(x) to estimate sin(3) and 3/8 cos(3), respectively.
(c) Are the approximations L₁(x) and L₂(x) overestimating or underestimating? Sustain
your claim using the second derivative.
(d) Compute and compare |f"(π)| and g"(π)| to determine which approximation is more
accurate.
