The value of lim(xrarrb)(sqrt(x-a)-sqrt(...

The value of `lim_(xrarrb)(sqrt(x-a)-sqrt(b-a))/(x^2-b^2)`, for`bgt a`,is

A

`(1)/(4bsqrt(a-b))`

B

`(1)/(4b(sqrt(b-a))`

C

`(1)/(4asqrt(a-b))`

D

`(1)/(bsqrt(b-a))`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

We have,
`lim_(x to b) (sqrt(x-a)-sqrt(b-a))/(x^2-b^2)`
` = lim_(x to b) (x-b)/((x-b)(x+b){sqrt(x-a)+sqrt(b-a)})`
`- lim_(x to b) (1)/((x+b){sqrt(x-a)+sqrt(b-a)})=(1)/(2b{2sqrt(b-a)})=(1)/(4bsqrt(b-a))`.
