Q1b
V12(-1)"
V12(-1)"
3" (2n + 1)
Consider the series
Note: this was changed from
3" (2n + 1)
n-0
(a)
Use any test for convergence/divergence to show that the series converges.
It is possible to show that the sum of the series
V12(-1)"
3" (2n + 1)
(b)
is 7, in other words, the series
n=0
converges to the number 7. (You do NOT need to prove this, but it can be done somewhat easily using a
Taylor series expansion of arctan a.)
Suppose you want to use a partial sum of this series to estimate the value of to an accuracy of within
0.0001. Would using the first 8 terms of the series be enough to ensure you get an accuracy of within
0.0001? (8 terms means the terms where n = 0, 1, 2, 3, .., 7.)
Note: This was changed from "7 terms".
.....
Hint: Use Theorem 5.14.
