    The value of \[\underset{x\to \pi }{\mathop{\lim }}\,\frac{\sqrt{2+\cos x}-1}{{{(\pi -x)}^{2}}}\]is :

    A)                  1/4                                       

    B)  2

    C)  1/2                                       

    D)  zero

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    \[\underset{x\to \pi }{\mathop{\lim }}\,\frac{\sqrt{2+\cos x-1}}{{{(\pi -x)}^{2}}}\] \[\underset{x\to 0}{\mathop{\lim }}\,\frac{\sqrt{2+\cos (\pi +h)-1}}{(\pi -{{(\pi +h)}^{2}})}\]                 \[\Rightarrow \]               \[\underset{x\to 0}{\mathop{\lim }}\,\frac{\sqrt{2-\cosh }-1}{{{h}^{2}}}\]                 \[=\underset{x\to 0}{\mathop{\lim }}\,\frac{2-\cosh -1}{{{h}^{2}}}\times \frac{1}{\sqrt{2-\cos x}+1}\]                 \[=\underset{x\to 0}{\mathop{\lim }}\,\frac{1-\cosh }{{{h}^{2}}}\times \frac{1}{\sqrt{2-\cos x}+1}\]                 \[=\underset{x\to 0}{\mathop{\lim }}\,\frac{1-(1-2{{\sin }^{2}}h/2)}{{{h}^{2}}}\]                 \[=\underset{x\to 0}{\mathop{\lim }}\,\frac{2{{\sin }^{2}}h/2}{4{{(1/2)}^{2}}}\times \frac{1}{\sqrt{2-\cos x}+1}\] \[=\frac{1}{2}\times \frac{1}{2}=1/4\]
