We’ll answer the first question since the exact one wasn’t specified. Please submit a new question specifying the one you’d like answered.
We have f(x)=tan1(x),x0=0
The general form of a taylor expansion centered at a of an function
f(x)=n=0fn(a)n!(xa)n,
Here fn represent the n th derivative of function.
We have a=0 then taylor expression reduce to
f(x)=n=0fn(a)n!xn
Now,
f(x)=tan1(x)
f1(x)=11+x2
f1(0)=1
f2(x)=2x(1+x2)2
f2(0)=0
f3(x)=2(1+x2)22(1+x2)(2x)(2x)(1+x2)4
=2(1+x2)28x2(1+x2)(1+x2)4
f3(0)=2
Therefore,
tan1(x)=f0(0)0!x0+f1(0)1!x1+f2(0)2!x2+f3(0)3!x3+
=0+11!x±+(2)3!x3+
=xx33+
