Check my proof that right-sided limit doesn't exist here












1














Let $f:mathbb{R^*} - >mathbb{R}, f(x) =sin (frac{1+x}{sqrt x}) $. Prove that $lim_{x to 0^+} f(x) $ doesn't exist.

My solution : Since $f$ is continuous, we have
$lim_{x to 0^+} f(x)=f(lim_{xto 0^+} (frac{1+x}{sqrt x}))=lim_{xto infty} f(x) $

However, the last limit doesn't exist and hence the result.
