hartnn (hartnn):
so did you apply l.h rule ?
OpenStudy (christos):
I did
OpenStudy (christos):
And I got tanxcosx/sinxsec^2x

hartnn (hartnn):
yes,
now simplify that
hartnn (hartnn):
tan cos is just sin
OpenStudy (christos):
oh so its 1
hartnn (hartnn):
yep
OpenStudy (christos):
how about (b) ?

OpenStudy (christos):
what would your first step be ?
OpenStudy (christos):
as far as I understand is something ^inf form
hartnn (hartnn):
taking log on both sides
OpenStudy (anonymous):
what the i.h rule
hartnn (hartnn):
L = lim ....
log L = lim log ...

OpenStudy (jusaquikie):
it's L.H. and he means L'hospital's
hartnn (hartnn):
^
OpenStudy (christos):
I got ln(y) = ln(1 + 2/x) / (1/x)
OpenStudy (jusaquikie):
b is easy just put in infinity or a large number like 1,000,000 and see what it is close too
hartnn (hartnn):
yes, you can differentiate now...0/0 gorm

hartnn (hartnn):
form
OpenStudy (christos):

OpenStudy (jusaquikie):
yes
OpenStudy (christos):
but wait
OpenStudy (christos):
I still have an ln(y) here

1+0 to any power is still just 1
hartnn (hartnn):
you got 1 ??? or 2 ?
OpenStudy (christos):

hartnn (hartnn):
you should get 2
OpenStudy (christos):
oh I messed up badly hold

num diff = -2/x^2
OpenStudy (christos):
true, its 2
hartnn (hartnn):
so , ln y = 2
hartnn (hartnn):
y= ... ?
OpenStudy (christos):
e^2 !

hartnn (hartnn):
sure :)
OpenStudy (christos):

hartnn (hartnn):
how r u getting inf for numerator ?
OpenStudy (christos):
I did it like this - 1/six(x) / x
OpenStudy (christos):
nah its stupid, hold on , lol
hartnn (hartnn):
let me make your life easier
1/x - cosec x
= (1-x cosec x )/x
OpenStudy (christos):
oh so thats inf

hartnn (hartnn):
wot ?
hartnn (hartnn):
treat 0*inf as 0
OpenStudy (christos):
x cosec x this is 0
OpenStudy (christos):
so we have 1/x
OpenStudy (christos):
aka inf ?

hartnn (hartnn):
num = 0
denom = 0
0/0
apply L.H
.-.
OpenStudy (christos):
man, (1-x cosec x )/x <------ xcsc(x) is 0 right ?
hartnn (hartnn):
yes
OpenStudy (christos):
so we are left with 1/x right ?
OpenStudy (christos):
nvm, I got it

hartnn (hartnn):
i was asking for the form
hartnn (hartnn):
whether you can apply LH or not
OpenStudy (christos):

OpenStudy (christos):
ah
OpenStudy (christos):
I don't think we need to apply it ?

hartnn (hartnn):
is there 0/0 form ?
OpenStudy (christos):
there is (1 + 0 / 0 ) form
OpenStudy (christos):
ah if I break it there is 0/0
OpenStudy (christos):
that's what you mean ?
hartnn (hartnn):
i am stupid , sorry
do it this way only
1/x - 1/sin x
= (sin x - x) / (x sin x)
