What You Will Learn
• All continuous functions can be represented as a polynomial
• Polynomials are easy to integrate and differentiate
• Calculators use polynomials to calculate trig functions, logarithmic functions etc.
• Downfall of polynomial equivalent functions is that they have an infinite number of terms.
This is an example of an This is an example of an infinite seriesinfinite series..

Example of a Power Series
The function y = 1
1 - x can be written as the power series:
Sn = 1 + x + x2 + x3 + ...
On your calculator, enter y1 =
1
1 - x and
y2 = sum seq xn , n, 0, 20( )( )
Then test a value: Enter y1(.5)
Enter y2(.5)
What do you notice?

The coefficients c0, c1, c2… are constants.
The center “a” is also a constant.
(The first series would be centered at the origin if you graphed it. The second series would be shifted left or right. “a” is the new center.)

Convergent Series
Only two kinds of series converge:
1) Geometric whose | r | < 1
2) Telescoping series

Finding a series for tan-1 x
1. Find a power series that represents on (-1,1)
2. Use integration to find a power series that represents
tan-1 x.
3. Graph the first four partial sums. Do the graphs suggest convergence on the open interval (-1, 1)?
4. Do you think that the series for tan-1 x converges at x = 1?
