Limit with arctan: $lim_{xrightarrow 0} frac{xsin 3x}{arctan x^2}$












1












$begingroup$


$$lim_{xrightarrow 0} frac{xsin 3x}{arctan x^2}$$



NB! I haven't learnt about L'Hôpital's rule yet, so I'm still solving limits using common limits.



What I've done so far



$$lim_{xrightarrow0}left[frac{x}{arctan x^2}cdot 3xcdot frac{sin 3x}{3x}right] = 0cdot1cdotlim_{xrightarrow0}left[frac{x}{arctan x^2}right] = 0??$$
Obviously I'm wrong, but I thought I'd show what I tried.

    Do you have this inequality: $sin x leq x leq tan x$ for $x geq 0$? And the limits that follow from it: $sin x / x rightarrow 0$, etc.?

You should put in
$$
frac{x^2}{arctan x^2}
$$
that has limit $1$:
$$
lim_{xto0}frac{xsin3x}{arctan x^2}=
lim_{xto0}3frac{sin3x}{3x}frac{x^2}{arctan x^2}=dots
$$
If you don't know the limit above, just substitute $t=arctan x^2$, so $x^2=tan t$ and the limit is
$$
lim_{xto0}frac{x^2}{arctan x^2}=lim_{tto0}frac{tan t}{t}
$$
that you should be able to manage.

    Starting as you did, we want to find the limit of
    $$frac{3x^2}{arctan(x^2)}cdotfrac{sin(3x)}{3x}.$$
    Only the first term gives any trouble. Let $x$ be not too large, and let $x^2=tan w$, You want to find
    $$lim_{wto 0} frac{3tan w}{w},$$
    which is not difficult. Replace $tan w$ by $frac{sin w}{cos w}$.

      Since $u sim tan u$, then $y sim arctan y$, so $x^2 sim arctan (x^2)$.



      This means that
      $$lim_{x to 0} frac{x sin 3x}{arctan x^2} = lim_{x to 0} frac{x3x}{x^2} = 3$$

        This feels unsatisfactory, as you are still using the derivatives of the functions in the numerator and denominator.

      Using the Asymptotic expansion:

      $sin(x)approx_0 x$

      $arctan(x^2) approx_0 x^2$

      So
      $$lim _{xrightarrow :0}:frac{xsin :3x}{arctan :x^2}=lim :_{xrightarrow 0}:frac{3x^2}{x^2}=color{red}{3}$$

                        This feels unsatisfactory, as you are still using the derivatives of the functions in the numerator and denominator.

                        Using the Asymptotic expansion:

                        $sin(x)approx_0 x$

                        $arctan(x^2) approx_0 x^2$

                        So
                        $$lim _{xrightarrow :0}:frac{xsin :3x}{arctan :x^2}=lim :_{xrightarrow 0}:frac{3x^2}{x^2}=color{red}{3}$$

Inhaltsverzeichnis 1 Lage 2 Geschichte 3 Literatur 4 Weblinks Lage | Der etwa 90 Meter lange Ida-Boy-Ed-Garten befindet sich an der nördlichen Spitze der Altstadtinsel, vor dem Burgtor. Die in einem Bogen durch eine Grünanlage hangaufwärts führende Straße verbindet die Wakenitzmauer mit der Burgtorbrücke. Geschichte | Der heutige Ida-Boy-Ed-Garten wurde ursprünglich als Verlängerung der Wakenitzmauer angelegt. 1903 wurde in den erhaltenen Teil der mittelalterlichen Stadtmauer, an dem die Wakenitzmauer bei der Einmündung der Kaiserstraße begann, ein Tor mit einem großen Bogen für die Durchführung der Straße und zwei kleineren seitlichen Öffnungen für Fußgänger gebrochen, um für die neu errichteten Wohnhäuser in diesem Bereich
