Solution
\[\frac{1}{2}\]
\[ = \lim_{h \to 0} \frac{1 - \cos h}{\left( \frac{\pi}{2} - \left( \frac{\pi}{2} - h \right) \right) \sin h}\]
\[ = \lim_{h \to 0} \frac{2 \sin^2 \frac{h}{2}}{h \sin h}\]
\[ = \lim_{h \to 0} \frac{2 \sin^2 \frac{h}{2}}{\frac{\frac{4 h^2}{4}}{\frac{\sin h}{h}}}\]
\[ = \frac{2}{4}\]
\[ = \frac{1}{2}\]
