    The value of \[\underset{x\to \pi /2}{\mathop{\lim }}\,\,\frac{{{2}^{\cot \,x}}-{{2}^{\cos \,x}}}{\cot \,x-\,\cos \,x}\]is

    A)  \[\log \,2\]

    B)  \[1\]

    C)  \[2\]

    D)  None of these

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    \[\underset{x\to \pi /2}{\mathop{\lim }}\,\frac{{{2}^{\cos x}}-{{2}^{\cos x}}}{\cot \,x-cosx}\] \[=\underset{x\to \pi /2}{\mathop{\lim }}\,\frac{{{2}^{\cos x}}({{2}^{\cot x-\cos x}}-1)}{\cot \,\,x-\cos x}\] \[={{2}^{\cos (\pi /2)}}\underset{x\to \pi /2}{\mathop{\lim }}\,\left( \frac{{{2}^{\cot \,x-\cos \,x}}-1}{\cot \,x\,-\,\cos \,x} \right)\] \[=1.\,\log \,2\] \[\left( \because \,\,\underset{x\to 0}{\mathop{\lim }}\,\frac{{{a}^{x}}-1}{x}=\log \,a \right)\] \[=\log \,\,2\]
