Math Problem Statement
Find the limit as x goes to 0 of the function sin2x/sin4x using the double angle identity
Solution
To find the limit of the function using the double angle identity, let's start by applying the double angle identities for sine:
Now, substitute in the denominator:
Simplifying by canceling the common factor of 2:
Now, substitute the expression again:
Taking the limit as :
So, the limit is:
