If the equation $$sin(x)$$ $$\, = {x^2}$$ is solved by Newton Raphson's method with the initial guess of $$x=1,$$ then the value of $$x$$ after $$2$$ iterations would be _________.

During the numerical solution of a first order differential equation using the Euler (also known as Euler Cauchy) method with step size $$h,$$ the local truncation error is of the order of

For solving algebraic and transcendental equation which one of the following is used?
