Solution

To determine the Maclaurin series for tan(ln(1+x))\tan(\ln(1 + x)) up to the x3x^3 term in part (c), we can proceed as follows:

  1. Use Previous Results: In parts (a) and (b), we obtained the Maclaurin series expansions for cos(ln(1+x))\cos(\ln(1 + x)) and sin(ln(1+x))\sin(\ln(1 + x)). For this question, we need the Maclaurin series for tan(ln(1+x))=sin(ln(1+x))cos(ln(1+x))\tan(\ln(1 + x)) = \frac{\sin(\ln(1 + x))}{\cos(\ln(1 + x))}.

  2. Maclaurin Series for sin(ln(1+x))\sin(\ln(1 + x)) and cos(ln(1+x))\cos(\ln(1 + x)): From part (a), we have: cos(ln(1+x))=112x2+12x3512x4+\cos(\ln(1 + x)) = 1 - \frac{1}{2}x^2 + \frac{1}{2}x^3 - \frac{5}{12}x^4 + \cdots From part (b), we have: sin(ln(1+x))=x12x2+16x3+\sin(\ln(1 + x)) = x - \frac{1}{2}x^2 + \frac{1}{6}x^3 + \cdots

  3. Form the Quotient sin(ln(1+x))cos(ln(1+x))\frac{\sin(\ln(1 + x))}{\cos(\ln(1 + x))}: We want to expand tan(ln(1+x))\tan(\ln(1 + x)) using the quotient: tan(ln(1+x))=sin(ln(1+x))cos(ln(1+x)).\tan(\ln(1 + x)) = \frac{\sin(\ln(1 + x))}{\cos(\ln(1 + x))}.

  4. Use Series Division: Perform the division of sin(ln(1+x))\sin(\ln(1 + x)) by cos(ln(1+x))\cos(\ln(1 + x)), keeping terms up to x3x^3:

    tan(ln(1+x))=x12x2+16x3112x2+12x3.\tan(\ln(1 + x)) = \frac{x - \frac{1}{2}x^2 + \frac{1}{6}x^3}{1 - \frac{1}{2}x^2 + \frac{1}{2}x^3}.

    To divide, write this as: tan(ln(1+x))=(x12x2+16x3)(1+12x212x3).\tan(\ln(1 + x)) = \left(x - \frac{1}{2}x^2 + \frac{1}{6}x^3\right) \cdot \left(1 + \frac{1}{2}x^2 - \frac{1}{2}x^3\right).

  5. Multiply Out Terms up to x3x^3: Expanding the product: tan(ln(1+x))=x12x2+16x3+12x314x4+\tan(\ln(1 + x)) = x - \frac{1}{2}x^2 + \frac{1}{6}x^3 + \frac{1}{2}x^3 - \frac{1}{4}x^4 + \cdots Simplify terms up to x3x^3: tan(ln(1+x))=x12x2+23x3+\tan(\ln(1 + x)) = x - \frac{1}{2}x^2 + \frac{2}{3}x^3 + \cdots

Thus, the Maclaurin series for tan(ln(1+x))\tan(\ln(1 + x)) up to the x3x^3 term is: tan(ln(1+x))=x12x2+23x3+\tan(\ln(1 + x)) = x - \frac{1}{2}x^2 + \frac{2}{3}x^3 + \cdots
