Find the limit of the trigonometric function.

(sin x)(1 – cos x)
lim
Transcribed Image Text:(sin x)(1 – cos x) lim
Expert Solution
Step 1

To find the limit of trignometric function: limx0sinx1-cosxx2.

We know that,

1-cos2x=2sin2x

And limx0sinxx=1.

Using the above formula, evaluating the limit.

limx0sinx1-cosxx2=limx0sinx·2sin2x2x2=limx0sinxx·2sin2x2x22·4=12limx0sinxx·limx0sinx2x22=12·1·1=12
