  • Newton Raphson Method11:11

    In numerical analysis, Newton's method (also known as the NewtonRaphson method), named after Isaac Newton and Joseph Raphson, is a method for finding successively better approximations to the roots (or zeroes) of a real-valued function.

  • Secant Method6:54

    In numerical analysis, the secant method is a root-finding algorithm that uses a succession of roots of secant lines to better approximate a root of a function f. The secant method can be thought of as a finite-difference approximation of Newton's method

  • Bisection Method10:25

    The bisection method in mathematics is a root-finding methodthat repeatedly bisects an interval and then selects a subinterval in which a root must lie for further processing. .... The method is also called the interval halving method, the binary searchmethod, or the dichotomy method

  • Trapezoidal & SImson's 1/3 Rule17:27

    In mathematics, and more specifically in numerical analysis, the trapezoidal rule (also known as the trapezoid rule or trapezium rule) is a technique for approximating the definite integral. . The trapezoidal rule works by approximating the region under the graph of the function as a trapezoid and calculating its area. 

    Use multiple-segment Simpson's 1/3 rule of integration to solve integrals, and derive the true error formula for multiple-segment Simpson's 1/3 rule. The trapezoidal rule was based on approximating the integrand by a first order polynomial, and then integrating the polynomial over interval of integration. 

Requirements
