(Solved): Consider the function f(x)=e^(x)cos(2x).
Construct the Lagrange interpolating
polynomial ...
Consider the function f(x)=e^(?x)cos?(2x).
Construct the Lagrange interpolating
polynomial P(x) by hand
using x0=0,x1=?/6,x2=?/4.
Find a bound for the absolute error on the
interval [0,?/4].
Compute the absolute error at x=0.2 given
by |f(0.2)?P(0.2)|. How does this error compare with the bound
obtained in part (B)?
Consider the function \( f(x)=e^{-x} \cos (2 x) \) A. Construct the Lagrange interpolating polynomial \( P(x) \) by hand using \( x_{0}=0, x_{1}=\frac{\pi}{6}, x_{2}=\frac{\pi}{4} \). B. Find a bound for the absolute error on the interval \( [0, \pi / 4] \). C. Compute the absolute error at \( x=0.2 \) given by \( |f(0.2)-P(0.2)| \). How does this error compare with the bound obtained in part (B)?
