In the following exercise, find a formula for the nth term
of the Taylor series of ,f(x), centered
at ,c, by finding the coefficients of the first few
powers of x and looking for a pattern. (The formulas for
several of these are found in Key Idea 9.7.11; show work
verifying these formula.)
f(x) = cos(x);c = 1/2
