MCQ
$\lim _{x \rightarrow \pi / 4} \frac{\sqrt{2} \cos x-1}{\cot x-1}=$
  • A
    $\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}$
  • $\frac{1}{2}$
  • C
    $\frac{1}{2 \sqrt{2}}$
  • D
    1

Answer

Correct option: B.
$\frac{1}{2}$
(B)
Applying L-Hospital's rule, we get
$\lim _{x \rightarrow \frac{\pi}{4}} \frac{\sqrt{2} \cos x-1}{\cot x-1}=\lim _{x \rightarrow \frac{\pi}{4}} \frac{-\sqrt{2} \sin x}{-\operatorname{cosec}^2 x}$
$=\frac{\sqrt{2} \times \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}}{(\sqrt{2})^2}=\frac{1}{2}$
