Evaluate the following limit: _ x 0 (a+x)^2-a^2 x - Vidyadip

Question

Evaluate the following limit:
$\lim\limits_{\text{x}\rightarrow0}\frac{(\text{a}+\text{x})^2-\text{a}^2}{\text{x}}$

✓

Answer

$\lim\limits_{\text{x}\rightarrow0}\frac{(\text{a}+\text{x})^2-\text{a}^2}{\text{x}}$$=\lim\limits_{\text{x}\rightarrow0}\frac{(\text{a}+\text{x}-\text{a})(\text{a}+\text{x}+\text{a})}{\text{x}}$
$=\lim\limits_{\text{x}\rightarrow0}\frac{(\text{x})(2\text{a}+\text{x})}{\text{x}}$
$=\lim\limits_{\text{x}\rightarrow0}(2\text{a}+\text{x})$
$=2\text{a}$
