False Position Method
1. Bisection is relatively inefficient as it takes generally more iterations to get a desired value of the root.
2. An alternative method based on a graphical insight is called False Position Method or Regula Falsi (latin)
method.
𝑥𝑙 +𝑥𝑢
3. One major disadvantage of bisection is that the interval is always halved to get a new estimation of the root.

4. But in the case where 𝑓(𝑥𝑙 ) is closer to zero than 𝑓 𝑥𝑢 . It is highly likely that the root is closer to 𝑥𝑙 than 𝑥𝑢
5. By joining 𝑓(𝑥𝑙 ) and 𝑓(𝑥𝑢 ) with straight line, we find that this line intersects the 𝑥 − 𝑎𝑥𝑖𝑠.
6. If 𝑓 𝑥𝑙 is closer to zero than 𝑓(𝑥𝑢 ), the intersecting point is closer to 𝑥𝑙
7. If 𝑓 𝑥𝑢 is closer to zero than 𝑓(𝑥𝑙 ), the intersecting point is closer to 𝑥𝑢
8. So, the new estimation of the root is found in a more appropriate position.
9. The intersecting point creates a more appropriate “False Position” of the root. This is why we call if false
position method

⇒ 𝑓 𝑥𝑙 𝑥𝑟 − 𝑥𝑢 = 𝑓 𝑥𝑢 𝑥𝑟 − 𝑥𝑙
⇒ 𝑓 𝑥𝑙 𝑥𝑟 − 𝑓 𝑥𝑙 𝑥𝑢 = 𝑓 𝑥𝑢 𝑥𝑟 − 𝑓 𝑥𝑢 𝑥𝑙
⇒ 𝑓 𝑥𝑙 𝑥𝑟 − 𝑓 𝑥𝑢 𝑥𝑟 = 𝑓 𝑥𝑙 𝑥𝑢 − 𝑓 𝑥𝑢 𝑥𝑙
⇒ 𝑥𝑟 𝑓 𝑥𝑙 − 𝑓 𝑥𝑢 = 𝑓 𝑥𝑙 𝑥𝑢 − 𝑓 𝑥𝑢 𝑥𝑙

𝑓 𝑥𝑙 𝑥𝑢 − 𝑓 𝑥𝑢 𝑥𝑙
⇒ 𝑥𝑟 =
𝑓 𝑥𝑙 − 𝑓(𝑥𝑢 )
