Math Problem Statement

limx->0 xcscx

Solution

To evaluate the limit

limx0xcscx\lim_{x \to 0} x \csc x

we start by rewriting it in terms of sine, as cscx=1sinx\csc x = \frac{1}{\sin x}:

limx0xcscx=limx0xsinx.\lim_{x \to 0} x \csc x = \lim_{x \to 0} \frac{x}{\sin x}.

Now, we can use the standard limit result:

limx0xsinx=1.\lim_{x \to 0} \frac{x}{\sin x} = 1.

Thus, the limit evaluates to:

limx0xcscx=1.\lim_{x \to 0} x \csc x = 1.
