\[\lim_{x \rightarrow \pi/2^+}\frac{ cosx }{ 1-sinx }\]
yup
so this gives us the indeterminate form 0/0
yes
just don't understand y the answer equals - infinity

so we take the derivative with respect to x of the numerator and then of the denominator
i did
i got \[\lim_{x \rightarrow \pi/2+} tanx\]
i just don't understand y that equals \[-\]
- infinity

you mean the original limit? have you tried graphing it?
i answer for this problem is - infinity but when u plug in pi/2+ for x in tanx don't u use the unit circle so tan pi/2 is undefined right
y is it -infinity
yes pi/2 is undefined because as this function approaches pi/2 from the right, it goes to negative infinity
