Let's use Newton's method to find the value of (squareroot)2. (This is a zero of the equation f(x)=x2-2 or a solution to x2-2=0).

a) Start with an initial guess of x0=3 and use Newton's method to approximate the zero.

b) How many iterations did you take to match a (squareroot)2 to 3 decimal places?

c) Draw a graph of f(x)=x2-2 on the interval [-4,4]. Using a straight edge (piece of paper or ruler) graphically do Newton's method on your paper starting with a value of x0=3 and x0=-1
