True or false: $\lim _{x \rightarrow 0} \frac{\sin x}{\log (1+\tan x)}=1$Start with hints
Do you really need a hint? Try it first! "Hint 1"Observe that the following limit is of the form \(\frac 00\).Do you remember that we always solve the limits of the form \(\frac 00\) and \(\frac{\infty}{\infty}\) by L’Hospital’s Rule. Hint 2- Consider \(f(x)=sinx\) and \(g(x)=log(1+tanx)\)
- Compute \(f ‘(x)=cosx\) and \(g ‘(x) = sec^2(x)/(1+tanx)\)
- Compute the limit of \(f ‘(x)/g ‘(x)\)
Hint 3- Observe that the \(lim f ‘(x)=1\) and \(lim g ‘(x) =1 \).
- Hence the value of the Limit is \(1\).
- The statement is therefore TRUE.
