Q1: Which theorem do we use in the proof of Taylor’s theorem?
A1: Intermediate value theorem
A2: Generalised mean value theorem
A3: L’Hospital’s theorem
A4: Sandwich theorem
Q2: In the proof, we use a telescoping argument for sums. What is the value of the following sum? $$ \sum_{j=1}^n (a_j - a_{j-1})$$
A1: $a_n$
A2: $a_0$
A3: $a_n - a_0$
A4: $a_n - a_{n-1}$
A5: $1$
A6: $-a_n + a_0$
Q3: In the proof, we calculated $f(x_0) - T_n(h)$. What did we get?
A1: $h^{n} \frac{f^{(n+1)}(\xi)}{(n+1)!}$
A2: $h^{n+1} \frac{f^{(n+1)}(\xi)}{(n+1)!}$
A3: $h^{n} \frac{f^{(n)}(\xi)}{n!}$
A4: $h^{n+1} \frac{f^{(n)}(\xi)}{(n+1)!}$
