Abstract

Newton-Raphson method and iteration method are widely used to solve non-algebraic or transcendental equation. In this paper we use first three terms of Taylor’s series to find the equivalent quadratic equation. Solving this quadratic equation we can easily find an iterative formula for the solution which gives better approximation than that of NewtonRaphson method. Here we present comparison of the roots and its convergency in geometric view.
