    This document discusses and provides examples of three root-finding methods: the fixed point method, Newton-Raphson method, and secant method. The fixed point method finds roots of equations of the form x=g(x). The Newton-Raphson method finds roots by iteratively calculating xnew=xold-[f(xold)/f'(xold)]. The secant method approximates the derivative in Newton-Raphson with the secant slope between the previous two points. An example problem solves for the root of x^2-x-1=0 with each method.

    Fixed Point, Newton-Raphson and

    Secant Method

    Prepared by: Ralph F. Tan Sanchez


    Fixed Point Method
    General Formula:
    x = g(x)

    Example 1:
    Find the root of x2 - x - 1 = 0 using Fixed Point Iteration Method.
    Newton – Raphson Method
    General Formula:
    xnew = xold – [f(xold)/f’(xold)]

    Example 1:
    Find the root of x2 - x - 1 = 0 using Newton – Raphson Method.
    Secant Method
    General Formula:

    Example 1:
    Find the root of x2 - x - 1 = 0 using Secant Method.
    Use initial values of 3 and 2.
