Find the smallest positive root of the function (x is in radians) x 2 |cos x| =

Question:

Find the smallest positive root of the function (x is in radians) x2 |cos √x| = 5 using the false-position method. To locate the region in which the root lies, first plot this function for values of x between 0 and 5. Perform the computation until εa falls below εs = 1%. Check your final answer by substituting it into the original function.
