Secant Method

The document summarizes the results of using the secant method to find the roots of three different functions. For the function f(x) = x^3 - 2x^2 - 6x + 4, the secant method converged to a root of -0.89693 using initial guesses of -3 and -4. For the function f(x) = x^3 - 2x^2 - 6x + 4 again, the root converged to 2.2301 using initial guesses of 3 and 2. Finally, for the function f(x) = sin(x) + cos(1+x) - 1, the secant method found roots
