Use the Bisection Method to find the root of x - sin(x) - 0.5 = 0 between the intervals 1 and 2. (Hint: You can stop iteration and decide the root when the relative approximation error is 0.1%) Question 2) Write a program that finds the root of the above function using the bisection method. (You can use C# or C++ programming)

Use fixed-point iteration and the Newton-Raphson method to determine a root of f(x) if X₀ = 5. f(x) = -0.9x² + 1.7x + 2.5. Perform the computation until the approximate error is less than 0.01%. Also, perform an error check of your final answer.
