Maclaurin Series, Taylor Series

1. Find the first three nonzero terms of the Maclaurin expansion of the given functions:

(a) f ( x)  cos 4 x (b) f ( x)  e x sin x

1 x x
(c) f ( x)  cos 2 x (d) f ( x)  (e  e )
2

2. Find the first two nonzero terms of the Maclaurin expansion of the given functions:

(a) f ( x)  tan 1 x (b) f ( x)  ln cos x

3. Find the first four nonzero terms of the Maclaurin expansions of the given functions by
using the expansions of the basic functions already done (that is, for
e x ,cos x,sin x,ln(1  x),(1  x)n )
