Failed to parse (MathML with SVG or PNG fallback (recommended for modern browsers and accessibility tools): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle \sum_{n=0}^{\infty}c_n(x-a)^n}   where  Failed to parse (MathML with SVG or PNG fallback (recommended for modern browsers and accessibility tools): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle c_n=\frac{f^{(n)}(a)}{n!}.}

Solution:

Step 1:
Let  Failed to parse (MathML with SVG or PNG fallback (recommended for modern browsers and accessibility tools): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle a=\frac{\pi}{4}.}
First, we make a table to find the coefficients of the Taylor polynomial.

Step 2:
Let  Failed to parse (MathML with SVG or PNG fallback (recommended for modern browsers and accessibility tools): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle T_n}   be the Taylor polynomial of order  $n.$
Since   $c_{n}={\frac {f^{(n)}(a)}{n!}},$  we have
$T_{0}={\frac {\sqrt {2}}{2}}$
$T_{1}={\frac {\sqrt {2}}{2}}-{\frac {\sqrt {2}}{2}}{\bigg (}x-{\frac {\pi }{4}}{\bigg )}$
$T_{2}={\frac {\sqrt {2}}{2}}-{\frac {\sqrt {2}}{2}}{\bigg (}x-{\frac {\pi }{4}}{\bigg )}-{\frac {\sqrt {2}}{4}}{\bigg (}x-{\frac {\pi }{4}}{\bigg )}^{2}$
$T_{3}={\frac {\sqrt {2}}{2}}-{\frac {\sqrt {2}}{2}}{\bigg (}x-{\frac {\pi }{4}}{\bigg )}-{\frac {\sqrt {2}}{4}}{\bigg (}x-{\frac {\pi }{4}}{\bigg )}^{2}+{\frac {\sqrt {2}}{12}}{\bigg (}x-{\frac {\pi }{4}}{\bigg )}^{3}.$

Final Answer:
Let  $T_{n}$  be the Taylor polynomial of order  $n.$
$T_{0}={\frac {\sqrt {2}}{2}}$
$T_{1}={\frac {\sqrt {2}}{2}}-{\frac {\sqrt {2}}{2}}{\bigg (}x-{\frac {\pi }{4}}{\bigg )}$
