Find the limit of the sequence or state it does not exist.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[\frac{ \tan ^{-1}n }{ n }\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

It does not exist.

OpenStudy (zarkon):

why do you say that

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[\lim_{n\to \infty}\tan^{-1}(n)=\frac{\pi}{2}\] does that help?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yes, that does but how did you it was pi/2?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

think of what the graph looks like!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Oh right I got it thanks!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

or think that \(\tan(x)\) has a vertical asymptote at \(\frac{\pi}{2}\)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the graph goes from -pi/2 to pi/2 and since we are taking the limit from positive infinite it will be pi/2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes
