The document discusses numerical methods for finding roots or zeros of equations. It describes the bisection method, false position method, and Newton Raphson method. The bisection method iteratively halves the interval containing the root until the interval is smaller than a set width. The false position method uses the slope of a line between two points to estimate the next root. Newton Raphson estimates the next root using the x-intercept of the tangent line at a point. Examples are provided to illustrate each method finding the root of equations.
