If f x = cos x x 1 2 sin x x 2 2 x tan x x 1 , then lim x → 0 ⁡ f ′ x x
Options
- Adoes not exist
- Bexists and is equal to - 2
- Cexists and is equal to 0
- Dexists and is equal to 2
Correct answer
B. exists and is equal to - 2
Step-by-step solution
Given f x = cos x x 1 2 sin x x 2 2 x tan x x 1 = cos x x 2 - 2 x 2 - 2 sin x x - x + tan x 2 x 2 - x 2 = - x 2 cos x + tan x . x 2 = x 2 tan x - cos x ⇒   Lim x → 0 f ' x x = Lim x → 0 2 x tan x - cos x + x 2 sec 2 x + sin x x = Lim x → 0 2 tan x - cos x + x sec 2 x + sin x = - 2
