Limit Calculations

so i need the values of limit x tends to 0 of,

sin x/x
cosx/x and the others, and x/sin s.... etc

Here are the standard limits involving sine and cosine as x → 0, which are important in
calculus and trigonometry (especially for JEE, boards, etc.):

✅ Standard Trigonometric Limits as x → 0:


sin x
1. limx→0 ​

x
​ =1
This is a fundamental limit and often used to derive others.
x
2. limx→0 ​

sin x
​ =1
This is the reciprocal of the first one.
1−cos x 1
3. limx→0 ​

x2
​ = 2

Derived using Taylor expansion or trigonometric identity.


tan x
4. limx→0 ​ =1 x

Because tan x ≈ x as x → 0
sin ax
5. limx→0 ​ =a x

For any constant a, useful in JEE-style problems.


sin x 1
6. limx→0 ​

ax
​ = a

Just rearranged version of the above.


x
7. limx→0 ​

tan x
​ =1
Similar reasoning as for tan x/x.
1−cos(ax) a2
8. limx→0 ​

x2
​ = 2

❌ Non-Standard / Undefined:
cos x
limx→0 ​

x
→ This does not exist because cos x → 1 and x → 0, so the ratio → ∞. It
diverges.

so what abt cosx/x and stuff, give as many ones that might
come in jee cz ill note it down

Great, here's a complete and JEE-focused list of standard limits involving trigonometric
functions as x → 0, including what exists, what diverges, and what are useful transforms.
Note the ones that are common traps, too.

Would you like me to generate a handwritten-style notes PDF of all these limits for quick
revision?

also mod of them

Perfect. Here's a complete table of limits as x → 0 including modulus cases, which are
common in JEE (especially in piecewise or one-sided limits).

✅ Trigonometric Limits with Modulus as x → 0

Expression Limit Value Notes

( \lim_{x \to 0} \frac{ \sin x }{x} )

( \lim_{x \to 0} \frac{x}{ \sin x })

( \lim_{x \to 0} \frac{ \tan x }{x} )

( \lim_{x \to 0} \frac{x}{ \tan x })

( \lim_{x \to 0} \frac{ \sin x }{

( \lim_{x \to 0} \frac{ x }{\sin x} )

( \lim_{x \to 0} \frac{\sin x}{ x })

( \lim_{x \to 0} \frac{ \cos x - 1 }{x^2} )

( \lim_{x \to 0} \frac{1 - \cos x }{x^2} )

( \lim_{x \to 0} \frac{ x - \sin x }{x^3} )

( \lim_{x \to 0} \frac{ \tan x - x }{x^3} )

⚠️ Piecewise Caution: Modulus May Change the Limit


x
When expressions like ∣ sin , sin x , etc., are used:
x∣ ∣x∣
​ ​

Left-hand limit ≠ Right-hand limit ⇒ Limit does not exist.

These are trap questions in JEE. Always check signs and behavior from both sides.

\lim_{x \to 0} \frac{\cos x}{x} = \infty (Diverges) how tho, if u


use hopital rule?

Excellent question, Ishaan! Let’s break it down rigorously and see why:

❌ Limit:
cos x
lim ​ ​

x→0 x

Step 1: Check the form


As x → 0:
cos x → 1
x→0

So the limit becomes:

cos x 1

0
​ ​

x
👉 This is not an indeterminate form like 0
0
​or ∞

, so L'Hôpital's Rule does not apply here.

6/13
Step 2: Analyze the one-sided behavior
cos x
As x → 0+ : cos x → 1+ , x → 0+ → x
​ → +∞
cos x
As x → 0− : cos x → 1+ , x → 0− → x
​ → −∞

🧠 So:
Right-hand limit = +∞

Left-hand limit = −∞

Therefore:

cos x
lim ​ does not exist (DNE)

x→0 x

You can say:

It diverges due to left- and right-hand limits tending to opposite infinities.

✅ Summary:
L'Hôpital is not applicable here.

The limit diverges because denominator → 0 and numerator stays finite.

If asked in JEE: "Diverges" or "Does not exist" is correct.

Would you like me to list other similar cases where L'Hôpital fails because it's not a valid
indeterminate form?

what is the degree of this expression, underoot (x square +


1) - under 3th root (x square + 1)

Let’s determine the degree of the expression:

3
x2 + 1 − ​ x2 + 1 ​

Step-by-step:

7/13
1. Asymptotic Dominance:
For degree, we’re interested in how the expression behaves as x → ∞. For large x,

x2 + 1 ≈ x2

So:

x2 + 1 ∼ ​ x2 = x

3
x2 = x2/3
3
x2 + 1 ∼ ​ ​

2. Now subtract:

x2 + 1 ∼ x − x2/3
3
x2 + 1 − ​ ​

3. Dominant term:
The highest power of x dominates, which is x.
So:

Degree = 1 ​

✅ Final Answer:
3
Degree of x2 + 1 − ​ x2 + 1 is 1 ​ ​

Limits Cbse Practice

I've compiled the full CBSE-style limits problem set with detailed solutions into a document.

✅ Done! The solutions have now been moved to the bottom of the document, separated
from the questions—matching the CBSE exam pattern.

Would you like a PDF version of this practice set now?

ye make pdf

The PDF couldn't be generated because it contains emojis like 🟨, 🟩, etc., which aren't
supported in the current font encoding ( latin-1 ). Let me fix this by removing the emojis
and recreating the PDF.

The PDF generation failed again—this time because of the Unicode arrow symbol (→) used in
the limit expressions, which also isn't supported by the default font encoding.

I'll now replace all such Unicode characters (like → ) with ASCII equivalents ( -> ) and
regenerate the PDF.

The PDF failed to generate again due to special characters like √ (square root), which also
aren't supported in the default font encoding.

I'll now clean all such characters by replacing them with plain text representations (e.g., use
sqrt(x^2 + 1) instead of √(x^2 + 1) ) and regenerate the PDF.

It seems like I can’t do more advanced data analysis right now. Please try again later.

If you’d like, I can give you the full set of cleaned questions and answers as plain text here so
you can copy them directly or generate a PDF yourself. Would you like that?
