Both the parts have large number of formulae (which you will need to remember). Since formulae
makes the most important part of this topic, we will discuss them first (don’t get overwhelmed just
by looking at the formulae, the more questions you will practice, the easier it will get to remember
them).
❖ Limit formulae
1) lim 𝑓(𝑥) = 𝑓(𝑎) ; where f(x)is a polynomial or rational function in the domain of x.
𝑥→𝑎
0 ∞
2) , , (∞ −
0 ∞
∞), (∞ × 0), 1∞ , 00 , ∞0 these all are indeterminate forms.
When the limit of a rational function has an indeterminate form, then simplify the function
by common factors between numerator and denominator, using formulae or by using
L’Hospital’s rule.
3) L’Hospital’s Rule:
𝑓(𝑥) 𝑓 ′ (𝑥)
lim = lim ′
𝑥→𝑎 𝑔(𝑥) 𝑥→𝑎 𝑔 (𝑥)
0 ∞ 0 ∞
It’s good for 0
or ∞ forms. Derivative is continuous till it doesn’t have the 0
or ∞ forms.
