Teach me how to find the sided limites

use l'hôpital's rule
OpenStudy (anonymous):
ok let me see I I can do it by the l hopital's rule
OpenStudy (anonymous):
I still get something/0

after applying l'hopital's rule
OpenStudy (anonymous):
im wrong sorry. Think it worked fine
OpenStudy (anonymous):
worked or not?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
no. can you show me how to do it, please?

ok let me see
OpenStudy (anonymous):
\[
\cos(x) \approx 1 -\frac {x^2}2 \\
\text { near } zero
\]
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Near zero
\[
1- \cos(x) \approx \frac {x^2} 2\\
\sqrt{1- \cos(x) }\approx \frac x {\sqrt 2}
\]
so
\[
\frac {x} {\sqrt{1- \cos(x) }}\text { is like }\\
\sqrt 2
\]
near zero.
So the limit is
\[\sqrt 2
\]

I used the Taylor Expansions of cos(x) near zero
\[
\cos(x)=\sum_{i=0}^\infty \frac{x^{2n}}{2n!}= 1-\frac {x^2}2 + \frac {x^4} {4!}- \cdots
\]
