Newton's Method - Used to approximate a root

Newton’s Method
I discuss the basic idea of Newton’s Method and how to use it. I do one example using Newton’s Method to approximate a root.

Newton’s Method - More Examples Part 1 of 3
Here I give the Newton’s Method formula and use it to find two iterations of an approximation to a root. I do NOT discuss the geometric idea of Newton’s method in this video (I do this in the above video)

Newton’s Method - More Examples Part 2 of 3
Here I give the Newton’s Method formula and use it to find two iterations of an approximation to a point of intersection of two functions.

Newton’s Method - How it Can FAIL - More Examples Part 3 of 3
Here I give the geometric idea behind Newton’s Method and show how it can go wrong and fail to yield an approximation. Newton’s method does not always work!
