lim x → 0√1+x...

Question

${lim}_{x \to 0} \frac{\sqrt{1 + x} - \sqrt{1 - x}}{2 x}$

Open in App

Solution

${lim}_{x \to 0} \frac{\sqrt{1 + x} - \sqrt{1 - x}}{2 x}$

Rationalising the numerator

$= {lim}_{x \to 0} \frac{(\sqrt{a + x} - \sqrt{1 - x})}{2 x} \times \frac{(\sqrt{1 + x} - \sqrt{1 - x})}{(\sqrt{1 + x} + \sqrt{1 - x})}$

$= {lim}_{x \to 0} \frac{(1 + x) - (1 - x)}{(\sqrt{1 + x} + \sqrt{1 - x})}$

$= {lim}_{x \to 0} \frac{2 x}{2 x (\sqrt{1 + x} + \sqrt{1 - x})}$

$= {lim}_{x \to 0} \frac{1}{(\sqrt{1 + x} + \sqrt{1 - x})}$

$= \frac{1}{\sqrt{1} + \sqrt{1}}$

$= \frac{1}{2}$
