    Method Secant: School of Engineering of Petroleum

    Uploaded by

    The document discusses the secant method, also known as the method of blotter, for finding the roots of functions. The method of blotter uses differences rather than derivatives to estimate the slope and predict where the root occurs. An equation is presented for calculating successive estimates of the root using values at two previous points. A comparison shows that while the first iterations are the same as the false position method, later iterations can differ, and the blotter method may diverge in some cases.

    Graphic scheme of the method of blotter. This skill is similar to that of the method of
    Newton-Raphson to the effect that an estimation of the root is predicted extrapolating the
    tangent one from the function up to the axis x. Nevertheless, the method of the blotter
    uses a difference more than a derivative to estimate the slope.

    From the relation of the similar triangles ∆ ABC and ∆ AED.

    Comparison between the methods of the false position and of blotter.

    The first iterations a) and b) of both methods they are identical. Nevertheless, in the
    second iterations c) and d), the secondhand points are different. Consequently, the method
    of the blotter can diverger, as it is indicated in d).
