Abstract

Non-linear equations arise in many fields of science and engineering. Solving these equations numerically is often challenging due to their complex nature. This paper presents a modified secant method for numerically simulating and approximating the roots of Non-linear equations. The proposed method enhances the convergence rate and efficiency compared to the traditional secant method by incorporating higher-order derivative information. Theoretical analysis and numerical experiments demonstrate the effectiveness and robustness of the modified secant method for solving a wide range of Non-linear problems. Comparisons with other established numerical methods highlight the advantages of the proposed approach in terms of accuracy, convergence speed, and computational cost. The modified secant method is a promising numerical tool for tackling Non-linear equations in various applications.
