limit as x approaches 0 of cot(x)-1/x

x \to 0 lim (cot (x) - \frac{1}{x})

0

Solution steps

x \to 0 lim (cot (x) - \frac{1}{x})

Express with sin, cos

= x \to 0 lim (\frac{cos ( x )}{sin ( x )} - \frac{1}{x})

Simplify

\frac{cos ( x )}{sin ( x )} - \frac{1}{x} : \frac{x cos ( x ) - sin ( x )}{x sin ( x )}

= x \to 0 lim (\frac{x cos ( x ) - sin ( x )}{x sin ( x )})

Apply L'Hopital's Rule

: x \to 0 lim (\frac{- x sin ( x )}{sin ( x ) + x cos ( x )})

= x \to 0 lim (\frac{- x sin ( x )}{sin ( x ) + x cos ( x )})

Apply L'Hopital's Rule

: x \to 0 lim (\frac{- sin ( x ) - x cos ( x )}{2 cos ( x ) - x sin ( x )})

= x \to 0 lim (\frac{- sin ( x ) - x cos ( x )}{2 cos ( x ) - x sin ( x )})

Plug in the value

x = 0

= \frac{- sin ( 0 ) - 0 \cdot cos ( 0 )}{2 cos ( 0 ) - 0 \cdot sin ( 0 )}

Simplify

\frac{- sin ( 0 ) - 0 \cdot cos ( 0 )}{2 cos ( 0 ) - 0 \cdot sin ( 0 )} : 0

= 0

\frac{d}{d x} (\frac{x - 1}{x + 3})

11 (t + 1) \frac{d y}{d t} - 8 y = 24 t, y (0) = 16

\int 2 e^{5 x + e^{5 x}} d x

\int sin (2 π x) d x

\frac{d}{d x} (3 x^{2} - 6 x + 10)
