II. Second Degree Approximations centered at x = a.
Recall that the first degree approximation of a function f(x) centered at a (otherwise known as the
tangent line) is
L(x) 3D A + B(x — а)
where A = f(a) and B = f'(a). Similarly, if we want to approximate a function f(x) by a second
degree function P(x) centered at a, it is best to write P in the form
Р(х) 3D А + B(х — а) + C(х — а)2
