    \[\underset{x\to \pi /4}{\mathop{\lim }}\,\frac{\sqrt{2}\cos \,x-1}{\cot \,x-1}\] is equal to

    A)  \[1\]           

    B)  \[-\frac{1}{2}\]

    C)  \[\frac{1}{2\sqrt{2}}\]

    D)  \[\frac{1}{2}\]

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    \[\underset{x\to \pi /4}{\mathop{\lim }}\,\frac{\sqrt{2}\,\cos x-1}{\cos \,x-1}\] \[\left( \frac{0}{0}form \right)\] \[\underset{x\to \pi /4}{\mathop{\lim }}\,\frac{-\sqrt{2}sinx-0}{-\text{cose}{{\text{c}}^{2}}x-0}\] (using L? Hospital?s rule) \[=\underset{x\to \pi /4}{\mathop{\lim }}\,\,\,\sqrt{2}\,{{\sin }^{3}}x\] \[=\sqrt{2}\times {{\left( \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}} \right)}^{3}}=\frac{1}{2}\]
