3. Using the trial function u¹(x) = a sin(x) and weighting function w¹(x) = b sin(x) find
an approximate solution to the following boundary value problems by determining the value
of coefficient a. For each one, also find the exact solution using Matlab and plot the exact
and approximate solutions. (One point each for: (i) finding a, (ii) finding the exact solution,
and (iii) plotting the solution)
a.
