Maclaurin series definition

Function as infinite sum of powers of xx

General Maclaurin series formula

f(x)=f(0)+xf(0)+x22!f(0)+...f(x) = f(0) + xf'(0) + \frac{x^2}{2!}f''(0) + ...

Validity of (1+x)n(1+x)^n when nn not a positive integer

1<x<1-1 < x < 1

Validity range for exe^x expansion

All xx

Validity range for ln(1+x)\ln(1+x) expansion

1<x1-1 < x \leq 1

Powers of xx in sinx\sin x Maclaurin series

Odd powers only

Powers of xx in cosx\cos x Maclaurin series

Even powers only

Value of a0a_0 in Maclaurin series

f(0)f(0)

Binomial expansion (1+x)n(1+x)^n first three terms

1+nx+n(n1)2!x2+...1 + nx + \frac{n(n-1)}{2!}x^2 + ...

Method for expanding compound functions

Expand each part separately, then multiply series together
