Enciclopédia Biosfera, Goiânia, v. 5, n.8, 2009.2317-2606http://repositorio.bc.ufg.br/handle/ri/12415The Newton method is used in almost all areas of applied mathematics and is part of the program of the discipline of calculation number seen by the students of the courses in the area of exact. We an idea of how the method has emerged and how to consolidate over nearly four centuries of discovery. We talk a just about two types of convergence: the linear and quadratically. In the last part we have made some examples and finally demonstrate a theorem that says that the method converges quadraticly provided the starting point of the sequence of Newton is taken in a neighborhood of the appropriate solution.porAcesso AbertoConvergênciaSequênciaTaxa de convergênciaConvergenceSequenceConvergence rateUma discussão sobre o método de newtonA discussion about the method of newtonArtigo
