Range of f = R − {−1} or R\ {−1}. Answer: (Do not use L’Hôpital’s Rule)
Since the function f is continuous at every point. Then

3. Find the limits as follows. (a) lim cos 2x−1 q √x
(b) lim 4. The sing of a real number also called sgn or signum, is −1 for a
x→0 sin x x→0 x+ x+√x
negative number, 0 for all number zero, or +1 for a positive number.
Answer:(Do not use I’Hôpital’s Rule)
In other word for real x,
(a) Since cos 2x = 1 − 2 sin2 x
cos 2x−1 1−2 sin2 x−1 −2 sin2 x
= lim −2 sin x = 0.
