 INTRODUCTION
Numerical analysis

• A technique widely used by scientists and engineers to solve

their problems
• Results be obtained even when a problem has no “analytical”
solution. This method are used to find the approximation and
also can be used as accurate result.
• There are Bisection Method, Intermediate Value Theorem,
Iteration, Secant Method, and Newton-Raphson Method that
we have learned in Mathematics IV.
