  1. Ari rewrites x²(1 − cos(3/x)) as (1 − cos(3t))/t² with t = 1/x, then uses L'Hospital's rule. What is the limit as x → ∞?

  2. Bo rewrites x²(1 − cos(5/x)) as (1 − cos(5t))/t² with t = 1/x, then uses L'Hospital's rule. What is the limit as x → ∞?

  3. Esme rewrites x²(1 − cos(6/x)) as (1 − cos(6t))/t² with t = 1/x, then uses L'Hospital's rule. What is the limit as x → ∞?

  4. Jun rewrites x²(1 − cos(8/x)) as (1 − cos(8t))/t² with t = 1/x, then uses L'Hospital's rule. What is the limit as x → ∞?

About this worksheet

L'Hospital's rule. Every version has 10 questions, and the answer key prints on the second page.

What your child will learn

  • I can check for 0/0 and use L'Hospital's rule once or twice.
  • I can use it with trig, exponentials and roots.
  • I can rewrite a product or a 1^∞ form so the rule applies.

Standard: none (beyond CCSS)

Words to know

indeterminate form: 0/0 or ∞/∞: the limit is not decided yet.

L'Hospital's rule: lim f/g = lim f′/g′ for 0/0 or ∞/∞.

1^∞: A base heading to 1 under a growing power.

Common mistakes

Lowered the power but did not bring it down when differentiating the top.

Brought the power down but did not lower it by 1.

Differentiated the top or bottom without the inside's factor (the chain rule).

Questions parents ask
