Evaluate the following limit: underset( ...

Evaluate the following limit: `underset( x rarr 1) ( "lim")(x-1)/(sqrt(x^2+3)-2)`

A

`1sqrt4`

B

`2sqrt(6)`

C

`2sqrt(5)`

D

`frac(2)(sqrt(5))`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
`frac(2)(sqrt(5))`

For finding: the limit of the given equation when `x` tends to `2`
Substituting `x` as `2` , we get an indeterminant form
Rationalizing the given equation
`Rightarrow lim _(x rightarrow 2) frac(sqrt(x^(2)+1)-sqrt(5))(x-2)=Rightarrow lim _(x rightarrow 2) frac((sqrt(x^(2)+1)-sqrt(5)))(x-2) frac((sqrt(x^(2)+1)+sqrt(5)))((sqrt(x^(2)+1)+sqrt(5)))`
We have the formula: `(a+b)(a-b)=a^(2)-b^(2)`
