About this worksheet

Limits with absolute value and trig. Every version has 10 questions, and the answer key prints on the second page.

What your child will learn

  • I can use sin u/u → 1 and tan u/u → 1 by matching the inside.
  • I can find one-sided and two-sided limits with absolute values.
  • I can use the squeeze theorem, and tell when a swinging function has no limit.

Standard: none (beyond CCSS)

Words to know

sin u/u → 1: As u shrinks to 0, sin u and u become almost equal.

squeeze theorem: If f is trapped between two functions that meet, f meets them too.

Common mistakes

Used sin u/u → 1 without matching the inside. sin(3x)/x needs a 3x on the bottom, so it heads to 3.

Flipped the two numbers. The number inside the top's function goes on top.

Treated |x − 2| as x − 2 on the left, where x − 2 is negative. Left of 2, |x − 2| = −(x − 2).

Questions parents ask

What is the most common mistake with limits with absolute value and trig?

Used sin u/u → 1 without matching the inside. sin(3x)/x needs a 3x on the bottom, so it heads to 3.
