Answer

$R_{n}(x)=\dfrac{\sin^{(n+1)}(c)x^{n+1}}{(n+1)!}$

Work Step by Step

The Remainder Theorem for some points $c$ and $a$ can be expressed as: $R_{n}(x)=\dfrac{f^{n+1}(c)(x-a)^{n+1}}{(n+1)!}~~~~~(1)$ We are given the functions $f(x)=\sin x$ and $a=0$ Put these values in the equation (1) to obtain: $R_{n}(x)=\dfrac{\sin^{n+1}(c)(x-0)^{n+1}}{(n+1)!}$ Thus, we have: $R_{n}(x)=\dfrac{\sin^{(n+1)}(c)x^{n+1}}{(n+1)!}$
