(a) find the differential dy. y = cos(x) dy =? (b) evaluate dy for the given values of x and dx. (round your answer to three decimal places.) x = π/3, dx = 0.1. dy=?

a) Given the expression:

y = cos(x)

On differentiating;

b) Given that x = π/3 and dx = 0.1

Substitute the given parameters into the formula in (a)

Hence the value for dy to three decimal places is 0.087

a. Practically speaking, you compute the differential in much the same way you compute a derivative via implicit differentiation, but you omit the variable with respect to which you are differentiating.

Aside: Compare this to what happens when you differentiate both sides with respect to some other independent parameter, say :

b. This is just a matter of plugging in and .

use formula for the circle a=3.14

b) 1/3 * 1/5

step-by-step explanation:

each smallest part is 1/15 since the written one is 1/5 and it's divided by 3 equal parts. (1/5 )/3 = 1/15 = 1/3 * 1/5
