Homework Statement
what is the 3rd degree taylor series of sin(1/10), and calculate the error of your answer.
the wording of this question may be a little off, i just took a test and this was what i remembered about the question.
The Attempt at a Solution
i didnt think that this was possible because sin(1/10) is a constant, so the derivative is 0, therefor when you write out the taylor series expansion f(a)+f'(a)(x-a)/n!... is simply sin(1/10) and the error ofcourse would be 0, but I am guessing I am wrong because of my uncertainty.
