Instructions: Answer all the questions in ascending order with proper justification. All parts of a question
should be answered at one place. The symbols/names used have their usual meaning.
1. Define the order of convergence. Find the order of convergence of the secant method and perform
four iterations to find the real root of x4 − x − 10 = 0 with initial guess x0 = 1 and x1 = 2. [6]
2. Solve the following non-linear system of equations using the generalized Newton’s method: [6]
10x + sin(x + y) = 1
8y − cos2 (z − y) = 1
12z + sin z = 1

Perform the three iterations assuming the initial guess as x0 = 10 , y0 = 14 and z0 = 12

3. Find the value of sin xdx by (i) two-point and (ii) three-point Gauss-Legendre quadrature
0
formula. Also, find the error bounds. [6]
4. The function f (x) = sin x + cos x is given. Using Lagrange interpolation, construct the quadratic
interpolating polynomial that fits the data:
x 1 2 3
f (x) 1.0170 1.0343 1.0510
Hence, find f (π/2) and compare with the exact value. [6]

5. Calculate y(0.6) for = −2xy 2 , y(0) = 1 by R-K method (Heun) with h = 0.2. Show the
dx
results in shape of a table. [6]
6. Solve the following system of equations using the Cholesky method: [6]
4x + 2y + 6z = 16
2x + 82y + 39z = 206
6x + 39y + 26z = 113
