Lim x−→2 (x^2 − 4) tan(2x − 4) / (x − 2)^2 Find the following limits. Show all steps. If the limit does not exist, explain why not? Not allow to use L’Hospitals rule.
1 Answer
Explanation:
Evaluate the limit:
Note that:
so we can simplify:
Multiply numerator and denominator by
Now consider the limit:
Substituting
that is a well known trigonometric limit:
So:
graph{((x^2-4)tan(2x-4))/(x-2)^2 [-4.873, 5.127, 6.26, 11.26]}
