Solution

`lim_(x -> pi/2) (1 - sin x)/cosx` is equal to 0.

Explanation:

`lim_(x -> pi/2) (1 - sin x)/cosx`

= `lim_(y -> 0) (1 - sin  pi/2 - y)/(cos  pi/2 - y)` taking ` pi/2 - x = y`

= `lim_(y -> 0) (1 - cos y)/siny`

= `lim_(y -> 0) (2 sin^2  t/2)/(2sin  y/2 cos  y/2)`

= `lim_(y -> 0) tan  y/2`

= 0
