Evaluating Trig Limits with Trig Functions Section 1.3 1.3 - Properties of Limits with Trig
“0/0” LimitsAKA: Indeterminate Form • Always begin with direct substitution • Completely factor the problem • Simplify and/or Cancel by identifying a function g that agrees with for all x except x = c. Take the limit of g • Apply algebra rules • If necessary, Rationalize the numerator • Plug in x of the function to get the limit 1.3 - Properties of Limits with Trig

“Squeeze Theorem” • Also known as the “Sandwich theorem,” it is used to evaluate the limit of a function that can't be computed at a given point. • For a given interval containing point c, where f, g, and h are three functions that are differentiable and f(x) < g(x) < h(x) over the interval where f(x) is the upper bound and h(x) is the lower bound 1.3 - Properties of Limits with Trig
