Finding the remainder term of a Taylor polynomial in Lagrange form

Hey,

I've got my first maths exam at uni tomorrow, the only sticking point I've come to is the title of this thread. I can find the Taylor polynomial no problem, but I can't quite remember how to get the remainder term. I remember it not being too difficult, but my notes are crap. I've attached the formula I have, I just can't remember what all the terms mean.

Thanks if anyone helps!

..

The remainder term is correct for some value of t between x and c.

If you still need help, what is it you don't understand?

OP

Ah I get it now, just found an example. I thought I had to find all the values but I just leave it in terms of c. Sweet. Thanks!
