Newton-Raphson Method is a numerical method for finding solutions to f(x)=0 . We start with a suitable intial value x_0 and find a sequence by x_{n+1}=x_n-\frac{f(x_n)}{f'(x_n)} . With right conditions the sequence x_n will converge to a solution of f(x)=0 .
We are going to use this method to find the value of \sqrt{2} , which is the positive solution of f(x)=x^2-2=0 . Which of the following statements are True with x_0=1 ?
