Engineering further math question please help

7. A mathematical model of an engineering process requires an approximation of sin x to a precision of no worse than 0.25%. Write an Maclaurin series f(x)=sin x to fifth order, and by completing the following table, demonstrate that the series give a sufficiently good estimate or sin x in the range of 0 to 1 radians.

Do the sin() Maclaurin series. You've covered ir? It's well known.
