The vertices of a campsite are $(25,15),(25,30),(55,30)$ , and $(55,15)$ . The vertices of your tent are $(30,20)$ , $(30,25),(40,25)$ , and $(40,20)$ . The coordinates are measured in feet. What is the area of the campsite not covered by your tent?

Consider the function f(x) = sin x. (a) Use a graphing utility to graph f. (b) Use Newton’s Method to approximate a zero with x_1 = 1.8 as an initial guess. (c) Repeat part (b) using x_1 =3 as an initial guess and observe that the result is different. (d) To understand why the results in parts (b) and (c) are different, sketch the tangent lines to the graph of f at the points (1, f(1)) and (1/4, f(1/4)). Find the x-intercept of each tangent line and compare the intercepts with the first iteration of Newton’s Method using the respective initial guesses. (e) Write a short paragraph summarizing how Newton’s Method works. Use the results of this exercise to describe why it is important to select the initial guess carefully.
