    The Taylor polynomials for ln(1 + x) only provide accurate approximations in the range −1 < x1. For x > 1, Taylor polynomials of higher degree provide worse approximations. The Taylor approximations for ln(1 + x) (black). For x > 1, the approximations diverge. Pictured is an accurate approximation of sin x around the point x = 0. The ...

    For instance, the square of the linear polynomial x + 1 is the quadratic polynomial (x + 1) 2 = x 2 + 2x + 1. One of the important properties of squaring, for numbers as well as in many other mathematical systems, is that (for all numbers x), the square of x is the same as the square of its additive inverse −x.
