Evaluate the following limit: _ x 2 x-2 x -2 - Vidyadip

Question

Evaluate the following limit: $\lim\limits_{\text{x}\rightarrow2}\frac{\text{x}-2}{\sqrt{\text{x}}-\sqrt{2}}$

✓

Answer

$\lim\limits_{\text{x}\rightarrow2}\frac{\text{x}-2}{\sqrt{\text{x}}-\sqrt{2}}$ $=\lim\limits_{\text{x}\rightarrow2}\frac{(\text{x}-2)\big(\sqrt{\text{x}}+\sqrt{2}\big)}{\big(\sqrt{\text{x}}-\sqrt{2}\big)\big(\sqrt{\text{x}}+\sqrt{2}\big)}$ $=\lim\limits_{\text{x}\rightarrow2}\frac{(\text{x}-2)\big(\sqrt{\text{x}}+\sqrt{2}\big)}{(\text{x}-2)}$ $=\sqrt{2}+\sqrt{2}$ $=2\sqrt{2}$
