If the value of lim x → 0 2 - cos x cos 2 x x + 2 x 2 is equal to e a , then a is equal to_____.
Correct answer
0
Step-by-step solution
We have, lim x → 0 2 - cos x cos 2 x x + 2 x 2 → 1 ∞ Hence, = e lim x → 0 1 - cos x cos 2 x x 2 × x + 2 Now, lim x → 0 1 - cos x cos 2 x x 2 → 0 0 Using L'Hospital Rule lim x → 0 sin x cos 2 x - cos x × 1 2 cos 2 x × - 2 sin 2 x 2 x = lim x → 0 sin x cos 2 x + sin 2 x · cos x 2 x cos 2 x = lim x → 0 sin 3 x 2 x cos 2 x = 3 2 lim x → 0 sin 3 x 3 x × lim x → 0 1 cos 2 x = 3 2 lim x → 0 sin 3 x 3 x × 1 = 3 2 So, e
