MCQ
$\mathop {\lim }\limits_{x \to 0} \frac{{\cos (\sin x) - 1}}{{{x^2}}} = $
  • A
    $1$
  • B
    $-1$
  • C
    $1/2$
  • $-1/2$

Answer

Correct option: D.
$-1/2$
d
(d) $\mathop {{\rm{lim}}}\limits_{x \to 0} \frac{{\cos (\sin x) - 1}}{{{x^2}}}$

$= \mathop {{\rm{lim}}}\limits_{x \to 0} \frac{{ - 2{{\sin }^2}\left( {\frac{{\sin x}}{2}} \right)}}{{{x^2}}} = - 2.\frac{1}{4} = \frac{{ - 1}}{2}$.
