Use linear approximation, i.e. the tangent line, to approximate (1/0.252) as follows Let f(x)= 1/x and find the equation of the tangent line in slope-intercept form to f(x) at a "nice" point near0.252
Then use this to approximate (1/0.252)

show that sin 3 is approximately pie-3

sin 3 is a radian. i used the formula l(x)=sin(a)+cos(a)*(x-a)i used 3.1 to estimate sin 3l(3.1)=sin(3.1)+cos(3.1)*(3-3.1)=.1414941775pie-3=.1415926536is this enough or the right way to show that... more
