lim as x->1/2 of (x^2)(tan(pi(x))) no calculator solve algebraically

Pixel:

*solves with calculator*

mhchen:

Take the limit of (x^2)(tan(pi(x))) as it goes to 1/2 from the left AND from the right. do you know how to do that? If they both go to the same number then there's your answer. If they're different then the answer is Does Not Exist

cassidygreen348:

boi i know the limit DNE, im saying do it algebraically. any idiot can look at the graph, or put in points to a table. Im saying manipulate the equation so we can prove it doesnt exist

cassidygreen348:

at least thats what my teacher wants

jhonyy9:

ok try it without calculator in this way do you know how many is tan(pi/2) = ?

cassidygreen348:

VA dne

jhonyy9:

what mean this - idk. sorry

jhonyy9:

i like help you solve it algebricaly

cassidygreen348:

VA= vertical asymptote, dne= does not exist

cassidygreen348:

w.e screw this im just putting DNE bc who cares

mhchen:

As the limit approaches 1/2 from the left, it goes to infinity As the limit approaches 1/2 from the right, it goes to negative infinity.
