Re: Limits

I was referring to the tea kettle principle. It does not apply here.

You can "rationalise" both the denominator and the numerator.

Re: Limits

Are you sure? You need to multiply both the denominator and the numerator by that.

Re: Limits

Hi Agnishom;

Make sure you multiply them separately else some cancelling will happen.

Re: Limits

You can divide both the denominator and the numerator by x, then use the known limits of sin(x)/x and tan(x)/x.

Re: Limits

And if the person asks you to prove that? How are you going to without the squeeze theorem which you do not allow?

Re: Limits

Post #36 is asking in an indirect way. Since these limits are to be done with restrictions we can not assume what is allowed and what is not.

Re: Limits

to be solved by the 1st problem only-

1.Lim( cosx + asinbx) ^ 1\x
x-> 0
2.lim (x^2 + 2x + 3 / 2x^2 + x + 5) ^ 3x-2/3x+2

Re: Limits

oopss!!!!! am sorryyy!!!!! I mistakenly wrote that 1st principle should only be used. sorry. in these following derivative sums...1st principle is only to be followed. not in those limits
1. x^2 e^x log x
2. (xsinx+cos x)(e^x + x^2 log x)

Re: Limits

1. lim  log (2+x) + log 0.5 / x
   x -> 0
2. lim e^sinx - 1\x
    x ->0
3. lim [ cos x – cos a/ sqrt(x) – sqrt(a)]
  x->a
4. lim 2^n-1 sin (a/2^n)
    n-> ∞
5. lim [sin(a\2^n) / sinb/2^n)]
n->∞
6.lim [ sqrt(2) – cosx-sinx/(4x- pi)^2]
n-> ∞
7. lim( π/2-x)tan⁡x
x→π/4
8. lim (a+h)^2sin(a+h)-a^2sina/h
h-> 0

Re: Limits

Can you please latex it up? Many of the limits are not legible.

Re: Limits

Hi Rinni;

Problem 6 and 7 looks off. Please write/latex them properly.

I've taken care of the rest.

No, I cannot because I need time to post them and I am going to go to sleep in 7 minutes. And they are irritating me.

I'll tell you how to do them tommorrow.

Re: Limits

Good evening bobbym.

1. Use whatever way (Sandwich, L'Hopital) to evaluate this by hand

I will aee if I can back engineer
