Numerical Analysis: Analyzing Root Finding Algorithms

In this math activity, students practice analyzing root finding algorithms, Newton-Raphson and secant. They use the examples to master the concepts.

For this math worksheet, students examine the concepts of generalizing root-finding algorithms and fixed point iteration. They also practice using the Fixed Point Theorem.

In this math instructional activity, students examine the uses of false position, Newton’s and Secant methods of finding the root of an equation.

In this root-finding activity, students rank numbers in asymptotic order. They identify and discuss the roots of the original function. This four-page activity contains approximately 10 problems.

In this introduction to root finding activity, students write equations to solve distance problems. They explore the bisection method of Bolzano. This four-page activity contains approximately ten problems.

In this numerical analysis worksheet, students plot functions, predict the number of iterations, and identify the convergence criteria of the function. This two-page worksheet contains eight problems.

In this QR algorithm worksheet, students use the QR algorithm to solve an over-determined system of equations. This two-page worksheet contains 11 problems.

In this math worksheet, students examine the concepts of algorithms and pseudocodes. Then they use the codes on a computer to execute the algorithms.

For this math worksheet, students use fzero to find the roots of the non-linear functions. They also practice finding the root of the polynomial functions.

Scholars identify how the TI-89 implements phasors to perform sinusoidal steady-state analysis. The focus is on how to enter and display complex numbers. They also show how a typical steady-state application how to use the Numeric Solver...
