Is there a way to find the derivative of sin(x) without limits?

Well, the derivative of a function is defined using a limit, so if you are finding derivatives, then you are indeed using limits directly or indirectly; however. in most calculus classes, the derivatives of trigonometric functions are remembered as formulas once derived. So, we have the formula

#(sinx)'=cosx#.


I hope that this was helpful.
