Why is it important?

This article elucidates the power of approximation theorems. Moreover, it provides an excellent example of how approximation theorems can be used to solve complex mathematical problems. As the mathematical jargon is minimal, it can be used for undergraduate lectures.

Perspectives

This article is simply written so that even an undergraduate studying mathematics may understand it and may use a similar technique to solve more complex problems. Moreover, it can serve as an excellent example of the power of approximation theorems in mathematical lectures.
