Using limθ→0 sin θ / θ = 1

1
First, recognize that the limit involves trigonometric functions as θ approaches 0. We will use the known limit limθ→0 sin θ / θ = 1 to help simplify the expression.
Rewrite the expression (1 − cos θ) / sin 2θ using trigonometric identities. Recall that sin 2θ = 2 sin θ cos θ, which can be useful for simplification.
Consider the Taylor series expansion for cos θ around θ = 0: cos θ ≈ 1 - θ²/2. This approximation can help simplify the numerator 1 - cos θ.
Substitute the approximation into the expression: (1 - (1 - θ²/2)) / (2 sin θ cos θ). This simplifies to θ²/2 / (2 sin θ cos θ).
Now, apply the limit limθ→0 sin θ / θ = 1 to the expression. As θ approaches 0, sin θ ≈ θ, and cos θ ≈ 1, allowing further simplification of the limit expression.

L'Hôpital's Rule

L'Hôpital's Rule is a method for finding limits of indeterminate forms, such as 0/0 or ∞/∞. It states that if the limit of f(x)/g(x) as x approaches a value results in an indeterminate form, the limit can be found by differentiating the numerator and denominator separately. This rule is useful for the given problem if direct substitution leads to an indeterminate form.
