Radius of convergence for sin(2x)?
not sure what you mean sin(2x) converges everywhere
Wait, how do you know that?
By using the Ratio Test?
you mean the power series?
the expansion is found by taking the expansion for \(\sin(x)\) and replacing \(x\) by \(2x\) radius of convergence is infinite
Wait, could you go step by step to find the radius of convergence?
do you know the expansion for \(\sin(x)\)?
Yessir! series from n=1 to infinity of (-1)^(n+1) * x^(2n-1) / (2n-1)!
ok then if you replace \(x\) by \(2x\) you get something like \[\sin(2x)=\sum_{n=0}^\infty{(-1)^n\frac{2^{2n+1}x^{2n+1}}{(2n+1)!}}\]
use the ratio test and you will get it
mine is different than yours only because i started at 0and you at 1, they are the same
if you do the algebra for the ratio test you will get \[\frac{x^2}{2}\lim_{n\rightarrow \infty}{\frac{1}{(n+1)(2n+3)}}.\] which is pretty clearly 0 for all x
I see, thank you !
