Use this estimate combined with the result from part 5 to show that \(|sn!R_n(1)|<\dfrac{se}{n+1}\). If we can find a power series representation for a particular function \(f\) and the series converges on some interval, how do we prove that the series actually converges to \(f\)? This will work for a much wider variety of function than the method discussed in the previous section at the expense of some often unpleasant work. \nonumber \], We need to find the values of \(x\) such that, \[\dfrac{1}{7!}|x|^70.0001.

Not only is this theorem useful in proving that a Taylor series converges to its related function, but it will also allow us to quantify how well the \(n^{\text{th}}\)-degree Taylor polynomial approximates the function. Using the \(n^{\text{th}}\)-degree Maclaurin polynomial for \(\sin x\) found in Example b., we find that the Maclaurin series for \(\sin x\) is given by. 6.3.2 Explain the meaning and significance of Taylor's theorem with remainder.

Therefore, to determine if the Taylor series converges to \(f\), we need to determine whether, Since the remainder \(R_n(x)=f(x)p_n(x)\), the Taylor series converges to \(f\) if and only if, Suppose that \(f\) has derivatives of all orders on an interval \(I\) containing \(a\). Show that the Maclaurin series converges to \(\cos x\) for all real numbers \(x\).
