Evaluate the following limit.

`lim_(x -> 0) (cosec x -  cot x)`

Sum
Advertisements

Solution

`lim_(x → 0) (cosec x - cot x)`

= `lim_(x → 0) (1/sinx - cosx/sinx)`

= `lim_(x → 0) (1 - cosx)/sinx xx sinx/sinx`

= `lim_(x → 0) ((1 - cosx). sinx)/((1 - cosx)(1 + cosx))`

= `lim_(x → 0) ((sinx)/(1+ cosx))`

= `0/2`

= 0
