Solution
\[(a)\]
\[ \because \lim_{x \to 2} \frac{\sqrt{1 + \sqrt{2 + x}} - \sqrt{3}}{x - 2} = \lim_{x \to 2} \frac{\sqrt{1 + \sqrt{2 + x}} - \sqrt{3}}{x - 2} \times \frac{\sqrt{1 + \sqrt{2 + x}} + \sqrt{3}}{\sqrt{1 + \sqrt{2 + x}} + \sqrt{3}}\]
\[ = \lim_{x \to 2} \frac{\sqrt{2 + x} - 2}{\left( x - 2 \right)\left( \sqrt{1 + \sqrt{2 + x}} + \sqrt{3} \right)}\]
\[ = \lim_{x \to 2} \frac{\sqrt{2 + x} - 2}{\left( x - 2 \right)\left( \sqrt{1 + \sqrt{2 + x}} + \sqrt{3} \right)} \times \frac{\sqrt{2 + x} + 2}{\sqrt{2 + x} + 2}\]
\[ = \lim_{x \to 2} \frac{\left( x - 2 \right)}{\left( x - 2 \right)\left( \sqrt{1 + \sqrt{2 + x}} + \sqrt{3} \right)\left( \sqrt{2 + x} + 2 \right)}\]
\[ = \lim_{x \to 2} \frac{1}{\left( \sqrt{1 + \sqrt{2 + x}} + \sqrt{3} \right)\left( \sqrt{2 + x} + 2 \right)}\]
\[ = \frac{1}{\left( \sqrt{1 + \sqrt{2 + 2}} + \sqrt{3} \right)\left( \sqrt{2 + 2} + 2 \right)}\]
\[ = \frac{1}{2\sqrt{3} \times 4}\]
\[ = \frac{1}{8\sqrt{3}}\]
