Provide an appropriate response.You plan to estimate ? to five decimal places by using Newton's method to solve the equation . Does it matter what your starting value is? Give reasons for your answer.

What will be an ideal response?


Yes. Since cos x = 0 at all points of ? + k?, if you choosing your starting value too large or too small, it will converge to a different solution.
