Sample Exercises for Lecture 3 (Week 3)

What we are going to cover:

1. Inverse trigonometric functions

2. Limit: left-hand limits; right-hand limit

3. Limit evaluation: substitution method; cancelation of factors, sandwich principle

sin( ax )
(squeezing theorem); lim bx = ba
x !0

Questions to practice

1. Prove that cos(sin y )= 1 y2 .

2. Suppose 8
< 2 x, if x < 1;
f (x) = x, if 1  x < 1;
:
( x 1)2 , if x 1.
Do lim f ( x ) and lim f ( x ) exist? If the limit exists, please evaluate it.
x! 1 x !1

> if x  1,
f (x) = 3x3 3
2 1 if 1 < x  2,
: xx2 +2ax
>

x 2 if x > 2,
where a and b are real numbers.

(a) Find f (1).

(b) Find lim f ( x ) if it exists, otherwise explain your result.
x !1
(c) Find a and b so that lim f ( x ) exists.
x !2
