Understanding Limits in Calculus

Limits are fundamental to calculus and mathematical analysis and are used to define derivatives, integrals, and continuity. Here, you'll learn about various techniques to evaluate limits.

Techniques to Evaluate Limits

  1. Direct Substitution: Try replacing x in the function with the value it approaches.
  2. Factoring: Factor the expression and simplify.
  3. Use of Conjugates: Multiply by the conjugate when dealing with square roots.
  4. L'Hôpital's Rule: Use when limits result in indeterminate forms such as 0/0 or ∞/∞.
