QuestionFind the limit: .
Studdy Solution
STEP 1
Assumptions1. We are asked to find the limit as x approaches0 for the function . . We will use the limit properties and trigonometric identities to solve this problem.
STEP 2
We notice that the limit is of the form as x approaches0. This is an indeterminate form, so we can apply L'Hopital's rule, which states that the limit of a ratio of two functions as x approaches a certain value is equal to the limit of the ratios of their derivatives.
STEP 3
Now, we calculate the derivatives of and using the chain rule. The derivative of is , where is the derivative of .
For , and . So, the derivative is .
For , and . So, the derivative is .
STEP 4
Substitute these derivatives back into the limit.
STEP 5
implify the limit by cancelling out the common factor of2.
STEP 6
Now, we evaluate the limit as x approaches0.
STEP 7
Since , the limit simplifies toSo, the limit of the function as x approaches0 is3.
