Question: Consider the function defined as Sinc(x) = (sin x)/x . (a) Using the Taylor series for sin x, compute the Taylor series for Sinc(x) up

Consider the function defined as Sinc(x) = (sin x)/x .

(a) Using the Taylor series for sin x, compute the Taylor series for Sinc(x) up to and including terms of 0(x6 ).

(b) Use the series (integrate) to estimate the value of R 1 0 Sinc(x) dx

(c) Compare your answer using terms up to 0(x5 ) and then 0(x7 ) with the solution obtained in some other manner (exact, Wolfram Alpha, matlab ...) and comment.
