How do you find the lim x-> ∞ of tan(π/4cos(sin x^1/3))? Please be thorough thanks!

OpenStudy (jamesj):

The function is this? \[\tan\left( \pi/4 . \cos(\sin(x^{1/3})) \right)\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes

OpenStudy (jamesj):

Then think about whether or not sin(x^{1/3}) has a limit as x --> infinity Remember that sin oscillates without end.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the limit does not exist as x-> infinity for sin (x^1/3)\[\sin x^{1/3}\]

OpenStudy (jamesj):

Right. Hence does your function have a limit as x --> infinity ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I'm going to say no

OpenStudy (jamesj):

And you'd be right.
