Problem:Use the Lagrange interpolating polynomial of degree three or less and four digit chopping arithmetic to approximate cos(.750) using the following values. Find an error bound for the approximation.cos(.6980) = 0.7661cos(.7330) = 0.7432cos(.7680) = 0.7193cos(.8030) = 0.6946The actual value of cos(.7500) = 0.7317 (to four decimal places). Explain the discrepancy between the actual error and the error bound.Solution:The approximation of cos(.7500) 0.7313. The actual error is 0.0004, and an error bound is 2.7 10^{ -8}. The discrepancy is due to the fact that the data are given only to four decimal places. _____________________________________________________________ Can anyone help me figure out the intermediary steps from the problem to solution?
