About Lagrange Error Bound
The Lagrange error bound provides an upper bound for the error in Taylor series approximations. It states that:
|R_n(x)| ≤ (M * |x-a|^(n+1)) / (n+1)!
Where:
• R_n(x) is the remainder/error term
• M is the maximum value of |f^(n+1)(c)| on the interval [a,x] or [x,a]
• c is some point in the interval
• n is the degree of the Taylor polynomial
