Limits Flashcards
Change to radians.
Tip
First always try _ to see limit.
Graphing
To solve algebraically, plug in what _ _.
X approaches
Piecewise functions
- Write f(x)={regular and regular with –(x portion)
- Solve for x in x portion
- _ _ number to see whether < or >
- The equal to can go on either < or >
–(x portion), plug in
If you algebraically solve for the limit and it equals _ then infinity and _ then -infinity.
1/0, -1/0
If you get _ (undeterminant) then do more work.
0/0
Limit only exits if _ = _.
LHL, RHL
Asymptotes _ or _.
y=, x=
If 1/0 and everything still cancels out, plug in numbers _ and _ to see if or -.
Before, after
X^3+y^3
(x+(same sign)y)(x^2-(opposite sign)(x+y^2)
If as x approaches then multiply top and bottom by _.
1/x^highest degree
Multiplying exponents means _ them.
Adding
Make sure to put everything into parentheses when graphing.
Tip
Sin(x)/x
1
A limit will always have a _ unless there is an f(x) at the same point.
