Correct answer

B. 16\dfrac{1}{6}

Step-by-step solution

Consider lim⁡x→0cos⁡(sin⁡x)−cos⁡xx4(00form)\lim_{x \to 0}\dfrac{\cos ( \sin x ) - \cos x}{{x}^{4}}\left(\dfrac{0}{0}\text{form}\right)

lim⁡x→02sin⁡(sin⁡x+x2)⋅sin⁡(x−sin⁡x2)x4\lim_{x \to 0}\dfrac{2\sin \left(\dfrac{\sin x + x}{2}\right) \cdot \sin \left(\dfrac{x - \sin x}{2}\right)}{{x}^{4}}

=lim⁡x→02[sin⁡(sin⁡x+x2)(sin⁡x+x2)][sin⁡(x−sin⁡x2)(x−sin⁡x2)]×(sin⁡x+x2)×(x−sin⁡x2)×1x4= \lim_{x \to 0}2\left[\dfrac{\sin \left(\dfrac{\sin x + x}{2}\right)}{\left(\dfrac{\sin x + x}{2}\right)}\right]\left[\dfrac{\sin \left(\dfrac{x - \sin x}{2}\right)}{\left(\dfrac{x - \sin x}{2}\right)}\right] \times \left(\dfrac{\sin x + x}{2}\right) \times \left(\dfrac{x - \sin x}{2}\right) \times \dfrac{1}{{x}^{4}}

lim⁡x→02[sin⁡(sin⁡x+x2)(sin⁡x+x2)][sin⁡(x−sin⁡x2)(x−sin⁡x2)]×(x2−sin⁡2x4x4)\lim_{x \to 0}2\left[\dfrac{\sin \left(\dfrac{\sin x + x}{2}\right)}{\left(\dfrac{\sin x + x}{2}\right)}\right]\left[\dfrac{\sin \left(\dfrac{x - \sin x}{2}\right)}{\left(\dfrac{x - \sin x}{2}\right)}\right] \times \left(\dfrac{{x}^{2} - \sin^{2}x}{4{x}^{4}}\right)

lim⁡x→02×(x2−sin⁡2x4x4)(00form)(∵lim⁡t→0sin⁡tt=1)\lim_{x \to 0}2 \times \left(\dfrac{{x}^{2} - \sin^{2}x}{4{x}^{4}}\right)\left(\dfrac{0}{0}\text{form}\right)\left(∵ \lim_{t \to 0}\dfrac{\sin t}{t} = 1\right)

Applying L'Hospital's Rule,

lim⁡x→02×(2x−2sin⁡xcos⁡x4⋅4x3)=lim⁡x→0(2x−sin⁡2x8x3)(00form)\lim_{x \to 0}2 \times \left(\dfrac{2x - 2\sin x \cos x}{4 \cdot 4{x}^{3}}\right) = \lim_{x \to 0}\left(\dfrac{2x - \sin 2x}{8{x}^{3}}\right)\left(\dfrac{0}{0}\text{form}\right)

lim⁡x→0(2−2cos⁡2x24x2)(00form)\lim_{x \to 0}\left(\dfrac{2 - 2\cos 2x}{24{x}^{2}}\right)\left(\dfrac{0}{0}\text{form}\right)

lim⁡x→0(4sin⁡2x48x)=lim⁡x→0(sin⁡2x2x)=16\lim_{x \to 0}\left(\dfrac{4\sin 2x}{48x}\right) = \lim_{x \to 0}\left(\dfrac{\sin 2x}{2x}\right) = \dfrac{1}{6}
