Assignment #1

Q-1:- Let the points represent path followed by the tennis ball in a match and we require a function which would help in applying
Hawk-eye Technology to address referee appeal for the decision on the ball hit inside or outside of the court boundary. Using the
data points shared in the table Construct the following
i)- Lagrange Interpolating Polynomial
ii)- Newton’s Divided Difference Interpolating Polynomial
iii)- Newton’s Forward Difference Interpolating Polynomial at the value of the function 𝒙 = 𝟏. 𝟓.
iv)- Newton’s Backward Difference Polynomial to approximate the value of function at 𝒙 = 𝟓. 𝟓.

v)- Newton’s Central Difference Polynomial to approximate the value of function at 𝒙 = 𝟑. 𝟓 .

Q-2:- Develop the graphical view for polynomial of degree 6 using

the approach of Lagrange coefficient? (show work with
different color lines for the 6 curves indicating the polynomial)
also verify the property in the formula for the same)

Q-3:- Develop graphical comparison of the Lagrange, Newton’s divided difference and Newton’s forward difference Interpolating
Polynomial in the interval at [𝟎, 𝟕]. Also conclude after calculating error for the 3 methods mentioned in the question by taking actual
function 𝒇(𝒙) = 𝒙𝟑 − 𝟒𝒙𝟐 . Consequent upon your result mathematically and graphically.
