Answer

$\cos (2)=1-\dfrac{2^2}{2!}+\dfrac{2^4}{4!}-\dfrac{2^6}{6!}$

Work Step by Step

The first $4$ non-zero terms of Taylor series can be written as: $\cos x=1-\dfrac{x^2}{2!}+\dfrac{x^4}{4!}-\dfrac{x^6}{6!}$ Plug $x=2$ in the above equation to obtain: $\cos (2)=1-\dfrac{2^2}{2!}+\dfrac{2^4}{4!}-\dfrac{2^6}{6!}$ Therefore, the first $4$ non-zero terms of an infinite series is equal to: $\cos (2)=1-\dfrac{2^2}{2!}+\dfrac{2^4}{4!}-\dfrac{2^6}{6!}$
