Solutions to Problems on the Newton-Raphson Method

2. Let f(x)=x2 −a. Show that the Newton Method leads to the recur-rence x n+1 = 1 2 x n+ a x n : Heron of Alexandria (60 CE?) used a pre-algebra version of the above recurrence. It is still at the heart of computer algorithms for nding square roots. Solution:Wehavef(x)=2x. The Newton Method therefore leads to the recurrence x n+1 = x n− f(x ...
