Name: _____________________________ Calc BC Unit 5 Review Sheet

Things to know:
 Estimating a derivative / local linearization (over approximation vs. under) / tangent line
 Error bound for alternating series
 Taylor and Maclaurin polynomials/series
 Lagrange error bound for Taylor and Maclaurin Polynomials
 Radius and interval of convergence
 Representing functions as a power series (such as expressing sin(x) as a Taylor series)

Things to memorize:

Eq of a tangent line: y= y 1+ m ( x−x 1 ) .Over approx if concave down and under if concave up.

Taylor Polynomials:

Maclaurin Polynomials: If , then


Most problems will give you the value of c by saying “center at x=___”

Lagrange error bound: .

The notation represents the largest value will take on for a z that will

(typically) lie between c and x. . *For sin and cos we say that is 1.*

Alternating Series Error Bound:

Function First Four Terms General Term Interval of Convergence


 The radius of convergence is the distance from the center to either endpoint of the interval.

 You must test each endpoint of the interval to see the series is convergent at the endpoints. Do
this by plugging in the value of each endpoint into the series for x. Then do a test for
convergence at each x value.
