Chapter 6, Problem 14E

(choose chapter or problem)

In Exercises 5–14, the space is \(C[0,2 \pi]\) with the inner product (6).

Suppose the first few Fourier coefficients of some function f in \(C[0,2 \pi]\) are \(a_{0}, a_{1}, a_{2}, \text { and } b_{1}, b_{2}, b_{3}\). Which of the following trigonometric polynomials is closer to f ? Defend your answer.

\(g(t)=\frac{a_{0}}{2}+a_{1} \cos t+a_{2} \cos 2 t+b_{1} \sin t\)

\(h(t)=\frac{a_{0}}{2}+a_{1} \cos t+a_{2} \cos 2 t+b_{1} \sin t+b_{2} \sin 2 t\)
