526 Chapter 18 Taylor polynomials, Taylor series and Maclaurin series

Since the generating function and series are equal forall values ofxwehave

∞∑ (−1) i x 2i+1

sinx= =x − x3

(2i +1)! 3! + x5

5! − x7

7! +···

i=0

Example18.12 Obtain the Maclaurinseries fory(x) = cosx.

Solution y(x)=cosx, y(0)=1

y ′ (x)=−sinx, y ′ (0)=0

y ′′ (x)=−cosx,

y ′′ (0)=−1

y (3) (x)=sinx, y (3) (0)=0

y (4) (x)=cosx, y (4) (0)=1

and soon. Therefore

p(x) =y(0) +y ′ (0)x +y ′′ (0) x2

2! +y(3) (0) x3

3! +y(4) (0) x4

Since the series and the generating function areequal for all values ofxthen

∞∑ (−1) i x 2i

cosx= = 1 − x2

Example18.13 Findthe Maclaurinseries forthe following functions:

( x

(a)y = e 2x (b)y = sin3x (c)y = cos

2)

Solution We use the previously stated series.

(a) We note that
