\[\lim_{x \rightarrow 0}\frac{ \sin ^{2}(2x) }{x^2 }\]

Seems too much to hope, but is L'Hôpital allowed?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Sadly no :(
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Can use Sinx/x = 1 and 1-cosx/x = 0
terenzreignz (terenzreignz):
Well in that case, why don't we try and decompose the function into something that resembles those two forms?

How about this:
\[\Large \frac{\sin^2(2x)}{x^2}= \frac{\sin(2x)}{x}\cdot\frac{\sin(2x)}{x}\]
OpenStudy (anonymous):
I was thinking
\[\frac{ (Sin2x)(Sin2x) }{x^2 }*\frac{ 2 }{ 2 }\]
Does this make sense?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Then I come up with 2 as Sin2x/2x =1
terenzreignz (terenzreignz):
But you need two of them.

Ohhhh

\[\Large \frac{\sin^2(2x)}{x^2}= \frac{\sin(2x)}{\color{red}x}\cdot\frac{\sin(2x)}{\color{green}x}\]
OpenStudy (anonymous):
\[\frac{ \sin^2(2x) }{ x^2 }*\frac{ 2 }{ 2 }*\frac{ 2 }{ 2 } = 4\]
terenzreignz (terenzreignz):
Bingo :P
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Am I right?

Nice <3
terenzreignz (terenzreignz):
Though, allow me this one little nitpick:
\[\Large \color{red}{\lim_{x\rightarrow0}}\frac{ \sin^2(2x) }{ x^2 }*\frac{ 2 }{ 2 }*\frac{ 2 }{ 2 } = 4\]
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Yup, perfect.
