What is the limit of 1-cos x over x squared when x approaches 0?

What is the limit of x cosine 1 over x squared as x approaches 0?
The limit is 0.
How do you solve the limit as x approaches 90 degrees of cos 2x divided by tan 3x?
Take the limit of the top and the limit of the bottom. The limit as x approaches cos(2*90°) is cos(180°), which is -1. Now, take the limit as x approaches 90° of tan(3x). You might need a graph of tan(x) to see the limit. The limit as x approaches tan(3*90°) = the limit as x approaches tan(270°). This limit does not exist, so we'll need to take the limit from each side. The limit from the left is ∞, and the limit from the right is -∞. Putting the top and bottom limits back together results in the limit from the left as x approaches 90° of cos(2x)/tan(3x) being -1/∞, and the limit from the right being -1/-∞. -1 divided by a infinitely large number is 0, so the limit from the left is 0. -1 divided by an infinitely large negative number is also zero, so the limit from the right is also 0. Since the limits from the left and right match and are both 0, the limit as x approaches 90° of cos(2x)/tan(3x) is 0.
What is the limit of sine squared x over x as x approaches zero?
So, we want the limit of (sin2(x))/x as x approaches 0. We can use L'Hopital's Rule: If you haven't learned derivatives yet, please send me a message and I will both provide you with a different way to solve this problem and teach you derivatives! Using L'Hopital's Rule yields: the limit of (sin2(x))/x as x approaches 0=the limit of (2sinxcosx)/1 as x approaches zero. Plugging in, we, get that the limit is 2sin(0)cos(0)/1=2(0)(1)=0. So the original limit in question is zero.
What is the limit of sin multiplied by x minus 1 over x squared plus 2 as x approaches infinity?
As X approaches infinity it approaches close as you like to 0. so, sin(-1/2)
