Help with limts please
\[\lim_{x \rightarrow 0}\frac{ \sin ^{2}x }{ x }\]
The sin thing throws me off. I remember that sin^2=1-cos^2 but i might be wrong
\[\frac{ \sin ^{2x} }{ x }=\frac{ 1-\cos ^{2}x }{ x }\]
Oh and the answer in the book is 0
\[\large \lim_{x \rightarrow 0}\frac{ \sin ^{2}x }{ x } = \lim_{x \rightarrow 0}\frac{ \sin x }{ x }*\sin x\]and you might know the limit of sin x/x...
Using limit laws\[\large \lim_{x \rightarrow 0}\frac{ \sin x }{ x }*\sin x = \lim_{x \rightarrow 0}\frac{ \sin x }{ x }*\lim_{x \rightarrow 0}\ \sin x\]
\[\frac{ \sin ^{2} x }{ x }=1\] right?
\[\large \lim_{x \rightarrow 0}\frac{ \sin x }{ x }*\lim_{x \rightarrow 0}\ \sin x\]and you know\[\large \lim_{x \rightarrow 0}\frac{ \sin x }{ x } = 1\]so\[\large 1*\lim_{x \rightarrow 0}\ \sin x\]
1*0=0 :D
thank you so much for the explanation :D
Welcome.
:D ty to @IrishBoy123 too
