The correct Answer is:
To solve the limit \( \lim_{x \to \infty} \frac{\sin^4 x - \sin^2 x + 1}{\cos^4 x - \cos^2 x + 1} \), we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Rewrite the limit Let \( L = \lim_{x \to \infty} \frac{\sin^4 x - \sin^2 x + 1}{\cos^4 x - \cos^2 x + 1} \). ### Step 2: Use the identity \( \sin^2 x + \cos^2 x = 1 \) Since \( \sin^2 x + \cos^2 x = 1 \), we can express \( \sin^2 x \) in terms of \( \cos^2 x \): \[ \sin^2 x = 1 - \cos^2 x. \] ### Step 3: Substitute \( \sin^2 x \) in the numerator Now, substitute \( \sin^2 x \) in the numerator: \[ \sin^4 x = (1 - \cos^2 x)^2 = 1 - 2\cos^2 x + \cos^4 x. \] Thus, the numerator becomes: \[ \sin^4 x - \sin^2 x + 1 = (1 - 2\cos^2 x + \cos^4 x) - (1 - \cos^2 x) + 1. \] Simplifying this: \[ = 1 - 2\cos^2 x + \cos^4 x - 1 + \cos^2 x + 1 = \cos^4 x - \cos^2 x + 1. \] ### Step 4: Rewrite the limit with the new numerator Now, we can rewrite the limit: \[ L = \lim_{x \to \infty} \frac{\cos^4 x - \cos^2 x + 1}{\cos^4 x - \cos^2 x + 1}. \] ### Step 5: Simplify the expression Since the numerator and denominator are identical, we have: \[ L = \lim_{x \to \infty} 1 = 1. \] ### Final Answer Thus, the limit is: \[ \boxed{1}. \]
