Question
Evaluate the following limit:
$\lim\limits_{{\text{x}}\rightarrow\frac{\pi}{2}}\frac{\text{a}^{\cot\text{x}}-\text{a}^{\cos\text{x}}}{\cot\text{x}-\cos\text{x}}$

Answer

$\lim\limits_{{\text{x}}\rightarrow\frac{\pi}{2}}\frac{\text{a}^{\cot\text{x}}-\text{a}^{\cos\text{x}}}{\cot\text{x}-\cos\text{x}}$
$=\lim\limits_{{\text{x}}\rightarrow\frac{\pi}{2}}\text{a}^{\cos\text{x}}\Big[\frac{\text{a}^{\cot\text{x}-{\cos\text{x}}}-1}{\cot\text{x}-\cos\text{x}}\Big]$
$=1\times\text{log a}$
$=\text{log a}$
