Q146

The derivative of f(x) = cos x can be estimated using the approximation \[ f' ( x ) = f ( x + h ) - f ( x - h )2 h.\] The percentage error is calculated as \[ ( Exact value - Approx value Exact value × 100 )\] The percentage error in the derivative of f(x) at \[ x = /6\] radian choosing h = 0.1 radian is
