Question

In exercise problems 7 – 15, use the graph to find the limits (if it exists). If the limit does not exist, explain why?

`lim_(x -> x/2) tan x`

Graph

Solution

`lim_(x -> x/2) tan x`

y = f(x) = sec x

From the graph at x = `pi/2`, the curve does not intersect the line x = `pi/2`

At x = `pi/2`, he value of the function y = f(x) does not exist.

Hence `lim_(x -> x/2) tan x` does not exist.
