Use l’Hôpital’s rule to find the limits in Exercises 7–52.


17. lim (θ → π/2) (2θ - π) / cos(2π - θ)

검증된 단계별 안내
1
First, identify the form of the limit as \( \theta \to \frac{\pi}{2} \). Substitute \( \theta = \frac{\pi}{2} \) into the expression \( \frac{2\theta - \pi}{\cos(2\pi - \theta)} \) to check if it results in an indeterminate form like \( \frac{0}{0} \) or \( \frac{\infty}{\infty} \).
Since direct substitution gives \( 2\left(\frac{\pi}{2}\right) - \pi = 0 \) and \( \cos(2\pi - \frac{\pi}{2}) = \cos\left(\frac{3\pi}{2}\right) = 0 \), the limit is of the indeterminate form \( \frac{0}{0} \), so l’Hôpital’s Rule applies.
Apply l’Hôpital’s Rule by differentiating the numerator and denominator separately with respect to \( \theta \). The derivative of the numerator \( 2\theta - \pi \) is \( 2 \).
The derivative of the denominator \( \cos(2\pi - \theta) \) requires the chain rule: \( \frac{d}{d\theta} \cos(2\pi - \theta) = -\sin(2\pi - \theta) \times (-1) = \sin(2\pi - \theta) \).
Rewrite the limit as \( \lim_{\theta \to \frac{\pi}{2}} \frac{2}{\sin(2\pi - \theta)} \) and then substitute \( \theta = \frac{\pi}{2} \) to evaluate the limit.

Limits and Indeterminate Forms

Limits describe the behavior of a function as the input approaches a certain value. When direct substitution results in forms like 0/0 or ∞/∞, these are called indeterminate forms, which require special techniques such as l’Hôpital’s rule to evaluate.

l’Hôpital’s Rule

l’Hôpital’s rule is a method for evaluating limits that yield indeterminate forms 0/0 or ∞/∞ by differentiating the numerator and denominator separately and then taking the limit of their quotient.
