Find the limit

OpenStudy (mathmath333):

\(\large \color{black }{\begin{align} &&&&&&&\lim_{x\to0}\dfrac{\left(1-\cos 2x\right)\left(3+\cos x\right)}{x\tan 4x}\hspace{.33em}\\~\\ \end{align}}\)

OpenStudy (mathmath333):

it is same as \(\large \color{black }{\begin{align} &&&&&&&&\lim_{x\to0}\dfrac{\left(1-\cos 2x\right)\left(3+\cos x\right)}{4x^2}\hspace{.33em}\\~\\ \end{align}}\)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[1-\cos2x=\sin ^{2}x\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

convert \[\tan4x=\frac{ \sin4x }{ \cos4x }\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

in the denominator ther is sin4x multiply and divide by 4x in the denominator

OpenStudy (mathmath333):

i thought applying \(\lim_{x\to0} \dfrac{\tan 4x}{4x}=1\) is valid

OpenStudy (anonymous):

s\[\lim_{x \rightarrow 0}\frac{ \sin4x }{ 4x }=1\]

OpenStudy (phi):

this seems to work \[ \lim_{x\to0}\dfrac{\left(1-\cos 2x\right)\left(3+\cos x\right)}{4x^2} \\ \lim_{x\to0}\dfrac{2\sin^2(x)}{4x^2}\left(3+\cos x\right) \] and use lim sinx/ x = 1

OpenStudy (mathmath333):

so this transformation is wrong \(\large \color{black }{\begin{align} &\lim_{x\to0}\dfrac{\left(1-\cos 2x\right)\left(3+\cos x\right)}{x\tan 4x}\hspace{.33em}\\~\\ =&\lim_{x\to0}\dfrac{\left(1-\cos 2x\right)\left(3+\cos x\right)}{4x^2}\hspace{.33em}\\~\\ \end{align}}\) ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i got confused! phi is correct yes the trnsformation is write sorry@mathmath333

OpenStudy (phi):

Yes, I can you can to that

OpenStudy (mathmath333):

so it is correct

OpenStudy (mathmath333):

thnks all

OpenStudy (phi):

yes. we can use properties like lim (a/b) = lim(a)/lim(b) to rework the expression. It is a bit tedious to type it out... but it works
