Module 9 :  Infinite Series, Tests of Convergence,  Absolute and Conditional Convergence, Taylor and Maclaurin Series
Lecture 27 :  Taylor and Maclaurin series [Section 27.2]
 

Thus, this is the Maclaurin series for . If we change the variable from to we get

the Maclaurin Series expansion for . (Note that to find Maclaurin Series directly requires some tedious derivative computations). Now for using theorem 27.1.8, we have
.

Since for , , we have . Hence

In fact, using the alternative series test, it is easy to see that the above holds for also.

27.2.7 Algebraic operations on power series:
 

Suppose power series

are both absolutely convergent to and respectively Then it can be shown that the following series are absolutely convergent to
