(a) Write the first-degree Taylor polynomial for $h$ about $x = 2$ and use it to approximate $h ( 1.9 )$. Is this approximation greater than or less than $h ( 1.9 )$ ? Explain your reasoning.
(b) Write the third-degree Taylor polynomial for $h$ about $x = 2$ and use it to approximate $h ( 1.9 )$.
(c) Use the Lagrange error bound to show that the third-degree Taylor polynomial for $h$ about $x = 2$ approximates $h ( 1.9 )$ with error less than $3 \times 10 ^ { - 4 }$.
