Find the second Taylor polynomial T2(x) for the function f(x) = cos(x) based at b = π/6. T2(x) = Let a be a positive real number and let J be the closed interval [π/6 - a, π/6 + a]. Use the Quadratic Approximation Error Bound to verify that |f(x) - T2(x)| ≤ a^3/3! for all x in J. Use this error bound to find a value of a so that |f(x) - T2(x)| ≤ 0.01 for all x in J. (Round your answer to six decimal places.) a =
