n An-1(ΔA) Memory clues: When quantities are added (or subtracted) their absolute errors add (or subtract). But when quantities are multiplied (or divided), their relative fractional errors add (or subtract). These rules will be freely used, when appropriate. We can also collect and tabulate the results for commonly used elementary functions. Note: Where Δt appears, it must be expressed in radians. error propagation khan academy RULES FOR ELEMENTARY FUNCTIONS (DETERMINATE ERRORS) EQUATION ERROR EQUATION R = sin q ΔR = (dq) cos q R = cos q ΔR = -(dq) sin q R = tan q ΔR = (dq) sec2 q R = ex ΔR = (Δx) ex R = e-x ΔR = -(Δx) e-x R = ln(x) ΔR = (Δx)/x Any measures of error may be converted to relative (fractional) form by using the definition of relative error. The fractional error in x is: fx = (ΔR)x)/x where (ΔR)x is the absolute ereror in x. Therefore xfx = (ΔR)x. The rules for indeterminate errors are simpler. RULES FOR ELEMENTARY OPERATIONS (INDETERMINATE ERRORS) SUM OR DIFFERENCE: When R = A + B then ΔR = ΔA + ΔB PRODUCT OR QUOTIENT: When R = AB then (ΔR)/R = (ΔA)/A + (ΔB)/B POWER RULE: When R = An then (ΔR)/R = n(ΔA)/A or (ΔR) = n An-1(ΔA) The indeterminate error rules for elementary functions are the same as those for determinate errors except that the error terms on the right are all positive.
