MCQ
$\mathop {\lim }\limits_{x \to 0} \left\{ {\frac{{\sin x - x + \frac{{{x^3}}}{6}}}{{{x^5}}}} \right\} = $
  • $1/120$
  • B
    $-1/120$
  • C
    $1/20$
  • D
    None of these

Answer

Correct option: A.
$1/120$
a
(a) Expand $\sin x$ and then solve.

Aliter : Apply $L-$ Hospital’s rule

$\mathop {\lim }\limits_{x \to 0} \frac{{\sin x - x + \frac{{{x^3}}}{6}}}{{{x^5}}} = \mathop {\lim }\limits_{x \to 0} \frac{{\cos x - 1 + \frac{{3{x^2}}}{6}}}{{5{x^4}}}$

$ = \mathop {\lim }\limits_{x \to 0} \frac{{ - \sin x + \frac{{6x}}{6}}}{{20{x^3}}} = \mathop {\lim }\limits_{x \to 0} \,\frac{{ - \cos x + 1}}{{60{x^2}}} = \mathop {\lim }\limits_{x \to 0} \frac{{\sin x}}{{120\,x}}$

$ = \mathop {\lim }\limits_{x \to 0} \frac{{\cos x}}{{120}} = \frac{1}{{120}}.$
