\[\lim_{\theta \rightarrow \frac{ 7\pi }{ 6 }} \frac{ \sin \theta }{ 6 \theta } \]

It's been a long time since precal. Can somebody refresh me?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
teta --> ? i dont see very well
OpenStudy (3psilon):
7pi /6 @tanjung
OpenStudy (anonymous):
You can simply plug in \(\theta=\frac{7\pi}{6}\)

But I'm getting 3/7pi and the book is getting -1/14pi
OpenStudy (anonymous):
It's \(-\frac{1}{14}\) since:
\[
\sin\frac{7\pi}{6}=-\sin\frac{\pi}{6}=-\frac{1}{2}
\]Thus:
\[
6\left(\frac{7\pi}{6}\right)=7\pi
\]And:
\[
\frac{-\frac{1}{2}}{7\pi}=-\frac{1}{14\pi}
\]
OpenStudy (3psilon):
So you do it as radians regardless it says theta?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Yep
OpenStudy (anonymous):
\(\theta\) just means "angle".

Yeah I just caught my mistake -_- that was the last question of the day @LolWolf won't bother you anymore. Thanks
OpenStudy (anonymous):
It's cool, and bother me? That's what I'm here for, haha... and no problem.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
sin 7pi/6 = sin 210 degree = -1/2
6(7pi/6) = 7pi
if u divided both, get the anwer is
(-1/2)/7pi = -1/14pi
OpenStudy (3psilon):
Thanks @tanjung I got it now! :)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
yup..wellcome :)
