Do Now Find the fourth order Taylor polynomial that approximates near
Before finding a bunch of derivatives, remember that we can use a known power series to generate another… From the Table of Maclaurin Series on p.477: Therefore,

Do Now Find the fourth order Taylor polynomial that approximates near
The Taylor polynomial: Support by graphing both functions in [–3, 3] by [–2, 2]

Practice Problems: #16 on p.478
Let f be a function that has derivatives of all orders for all real numbers. Assume Write the third order Taylor polynomial for f at x = 0 and use it to approximate f(0.2).
