Fourier Series: Problem 5
Note: The notation F(x) represents the nth partial sum, which can also be denoted as S(x).
Note: Use parentheses when appropriate. For example, sin 2x will be read by WeBWorK as sin(2*x).
Construct the first three Fourier approximations to the square wave function:
f(x) =
-x/2, x < 1/2
x/2, 1/2 ≤ x ≤ 1
F(x) =
F(x) =
F(x) =
Using a calculator, graph the function and the first three Fourier approximations to see how the approximation matches the function.
