Calculate lim
I tried L'hopital, but the denominator gets more and more complicated.
How does one calculate this limit?
Answer
Recall that \cos(2t) = 1-2\sin^2(t). Hence, we have
\cos(2x^2)-1 = -2\sin^2(x^2)
Hence, we have
\lim_{x \to 0} \dfrac{\cos(2x^2)-1}{x^2\sin(x^2)} = \lim_{x \to 0} \dfrac{-2\sin^2(x^2)}{x^2\sin(x^2)} = -2 \lim_{x \to 0} \dfrac{\sin(x^2)}{x^2} = -2
