Limit question

OpenStudy (dls):

\[\LARGE \lim_{x \rightarrow a} \sin^{-1} \sqrt{\frac{a-x}{a+x}} \csc \sqrt{(a^2-x^2)}\]

OpenStudy (dls):

\[\LARGE \lim_{x \rightarrow a} \sin^{-1} \sqrt{\frac{a-x}{a+x}} \frac{1}{\sin\sqrt{(a+x)}(\sqrt{a-x})}\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

It came in mains probably in 2014

OpenStudy (dls):

no it didnt come..

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ohk

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

im thinking of making a substitution \(\large x = a\cos (2\theta)\)

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

\[\large \lim_{x \rightarrow a} ~ \dfrac{\sin^{-1} \sqrt{\frac{a-x}{a+x}} }{\sin\sqrt{a^2-x^2}}\]

OpenStudy (dls):

i was thinking the same but then what about the cosec part

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

substitute \(x = a\cos (2\theta)\) as \(x \to a,~~ \theta \to \frac{1}{2}\arccos(\frac{x}{a})\)

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

\( \theta \to 0 \) i guess ^

OpenStudy (dls):

yep 0

OpenStudy (dls):

I feel x=acostheta would be a better option!

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

\[\large \lim_{\theta \rightarrow 0} ~ \dfrac{\sin^{-1} \sqrt{\frac{a-a\cos (2\theta)}{a+a\cos(2\theta)}} }{\sin\sqrt{a^2-(a\cos(2\theta))^2}}\]

OpenStudy (dls):

hmm its the same thing :P okay

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

ok lets assume its acostheta

OpenStudy (dls):

\[\large \lim_{\theta \rightarrow 0} ~ \dfrac{\sin^{-1} \tan \frac{\theta}{2} }{\sin asin \theta}\]

OpenStudy (dls):

ah yeah theta/2 or theta lets assume cos 2theta only

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

your expression is correct...

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

lets stick to it : x = acostheta

OpenStudy (dls):

\[\Huge \lim_{\theta \rightarrow 0} ~ \dfrac{\sin^{-1} \tan \frac{\theta}{2} }{\sin asin \theta}\] assuming x=a cos theta

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

i would do lhosps next

OpenStudy (dls):

\[\LARGE \frac{\frac{1}{1- \tan^2 \frac{\theta}{2}}}{\cos (a \sin \theta) \times a \cos \theta}\]

OpenStudy (dls):

theta->0

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

\[\large \lim_{\theta \rightarrow 0} ~ \dfrac{\frac{1}{\sqrt{1-\tan^2(\frac{\theta}{2})}}\times \sec^2(\frac{\theta}{2} )\times \frac{1}{2}}{\cos(a\sin \theta)\times a\cos \theta } \]

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

take the limit

OpenStudy (dls):

oh yeah hmm

OpenStudy (dls):

1/2a :P

OpenStudy (dls):

nope..:/

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

it got to do with domain of the function i guess

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

since the domain of arcsin(x) is between [-1, 1], the parameter \(a\) will be having some restrictions... not entire sure

OpenStudy (dls):

oh...acha maybe
