Question

find limit as x approaches pi/2 from negative side.

f(x)=(tanx)^[(pi/2)-x]

Answer 1

\[\lim_{x \rightarrow \pi/2^{-}} tanx ^{(\pi/2)-x}\], answer should be "1" but i need to know the step by step process

Answer 2

f(x) = tanx ^ [(pi/2) - x]
f(x) = e^ [(pi/2 - x) x ln tanx ]
when x approaches pi/2,
then f(x) = e^0 = 1

Answer 3

thank you jyouie :)
