What is the error due to using linear interpolation to estimate the value of sinxsin⁡x at x = \pi/3? your answer should have at

least three significant figures, accurate to within 0.1%. (e.g., 1.23 and 3.33e-8 both have three significant figures.)?

<h3>Answer:</h3>
  • using y = x, the error is about 0.1812
  • using y = (x -π/4 +1)/√2, the error is about 0.02620
<h3>Step-by-step explanation:</h3>

The actual value of sin(π/3) is (√3)/2 ≈ 0.86602540.

If the sine function is approximated by y=x (no error at x = 0), then the error at x=π/3 is ...

... x -sin(x) @ x=π/3

... π/3 -(√3)/2 ≈ 0.18117215 ≈ 0.1812

You know right away this is a bad approximation, because the approximate value is π/3 ≈ 1.04719755, a value greater than 1. The range of the sine function is [-1, 1] so there will be no values greater than 1.

___

If the sine function is approximated by y=(x+1-π/4)/√2 (no error at x=π/4), then the error at x=π/3 is ...

... (x+1-π/4)/√2 -sin(x) @ x=π/3

... (π/12 +1)/√2 -(√3)/2 ≈ 0.026201500 ≈ 0.02620

The range for the length of the third side is it must be greater than 10 feet and less than 30 feet.

<h3>What is the condition for the sides of triangles?</h3>

The triangle inequality states that the sum of the lengths of any two sides of a triangle must be greater than or equal to the length of the third side. That sum can equal the length of the third side only in the case of a degenerate triangle, one with collinear vertices.

The length of the third side had to be greater than the difference between the two given sides and less than the sum of the two given sides.

(20 – 10) < S <(20+ 10) ; 10< S < 30

Therefore, the range for the length of the third side is it must be greater than 10 feet and less than 30 feet.
