Chapter 1.2, Problem 7E

Find the second Taylor polynomial P 2 ( x ) for the function f ( x ) = e x cos x about x 0 = 0.

  1. Use P 2 ( 0.5 ) to approximate f ( 0.5 ) . Find an upper bound for error f ( 0.5 ) P 2 ( 0.5 ) using     the error formula, and compare it to the actual error.
  2. Find a bound for the error f ( x ) P 2 ( x ) in using P 2 ( x ) to approximate f ( x ) on the interval    [0, 1].
  3. Approximate 0 1 f ( x ) d x using 0 1 P 2 ( x ) d x .
  4. Find an upper bound for the error in (c) using 0 1 R 2 ( x ) d x , and compare the bound to the     actual error.
