  2. Taylor's theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Taylor's_theorem

    This is the form of the remainder term mentioned after the actual statement of Taylor's theorem with remainder in the mean value form. The Lagrange form of the remainder is found by choosing G ( t ) = ( x − t ) k + 1 {\displaystyle G(t)=(x-t)^{k+1}} and the Cauchy form by choosing G ( t ) = t − a {\displaystyle G(t)=t-a} .

    The Taylor polynomials for ln(1 + x) only provide accurate approximations in the range −1 < x1. For x > 1, Taylor polynomials of higher degree provide worse approximations. The Taylor approximations for ln(1 + x) (black). For x > 1, the approximations diverge. Pictured is an accurate approximation of sin x around the point x = 0. The ...

    For a n-times differentiable function, by Taylor's theorem the Taylor series expansion is given as (+) = + ′ ()! + ()! + + ()! + (),. Where n! denotes the factorial of n, and R n (x) is a remainder term, denoting the difference between the Taylor polynomial of degree n and the original function.

    Given a twice continuously differentiable function of one real variable, Taylor's theorem for the case = states that = + ′ () + where is the remainder term. The linear approximation is obtained by dropping the remainder: f ( x ) ≈ f ( a ) + f ′ ( a ) ( x − a ) . {\displaystyle f(x)\approx f(a)+f'(a)(x-a).}

    The extremely slow convergence of the arctangent series for | | makes this formula impractical per se. Kerala-school mathematicians used additional correction terms to speed convergence. John Machin (1706) expressed ⁠ 1 4 π {\displaystyle {\tfrac {1}{4}}\pi } ⁠ as a sum of arctangents of smaller values, eventually resulting in a variety of ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Taylor's_theorem

    The most general form of Taylor's theorem, for a function f(x 1, x 2, ... x n) of n variables, is a simple extension of the above [case for two independent variables]. Although it is not necessary to do so, we may think of the x i coordinates in n-dimensional space and write the function as f(x), where x is a vector from the origin to (x 1, x 2 ...
