Let f(z) = sin(x). We want to approximate the value of sin(3). Use a base point of x = to find a tangent line approximation of f(x)=sin(z) and use your approximation to fill in the following blankos If, then sin(x)~ sin(3)~ (tangent line) Use two base points to = /2 and ₁= 3/2 to find a secant line approximation of f(x) = sin(x) and use your approximation to fill in the following blanks: If x/2 < x < 3/2, then sin(r)~ sin (3)= (secant line) What does your calculator give you for sin (3) (to 6 decimal places)? sin(3)= Which approximation was closer, tangent or secant?
