MCQ
$\mathop {\lim }\limits_{h \to 0} \frac{{\sqrt {x + h} - \sqrt x }}{h} = $
  • $\frac{1}{{2\sqrt x }}$
  • B
    $\frac{1}{{\sqrt x }}$
  • C
    $2\sqrt x $
  • D
    $\sqrt x $

Answer

Correct option: A.
$\frac{1}{{2\sqrt x }}$
a
(a) $\mathop {\lim }\limits_{h \to 0} \,\,\frac{{\sqrt {x + h} - \sqrt x }}{h} = \mathop {\lim }\limits_{h \to 0} \,\,\frac{{{{(\sqrt {x + h} )}^2} - {{(\sqrt x )}^2}}}{{h\,(\sqrt {x + h} + \sqrt x )}} = \frac{1}{{2\sqrt x }}$.

Aliter : Apply $L-$ Hospital rule,

$\mathop {\lim }\limits_{h \to 0} \,\,\frac{{\sqrt {x + h} - \sqrt x }}{h} = \mathop {\lim }\limits_{h \to 0} \,\,\frac{1}{{2\sqrt {x + h} }} = \frac{1}{{2\sqrt x }}$.
