Solution

The correct option is B
0 and 1

A natural number is always equal to or greater than 1. The reciprocal of a number which is greater

than 1 is always less than 1. Moreover, all natural numbers are positive and reciprocal of a positive

number is always positive. Therefore, the reciprocal of any natural number lies between 0 and 1.

Q. If any number divided by zero is infinity and
if zero divided by any number is 0 then

What is 0/0????

Q. We know that
(i) sin x < x, for any x > 0
(ii) sin x > x, for any x < 0
Thus for any natural number n, sin(n) < n.
But as

- 1 < s i n (n) < 1 a n d (- 1, 1) \subset [- \frac{π}{2}, \frac{π}{2}]

So, we can conclude that :
sin (sin(n)) < sin(n) of sin (n) > 0.
and sin (sin(n)) > sin(n) of sin (n) < 0.
Let us define two recursion sequences {an} and {bn} as follows.

a_{1} = 1, a_{n} = s i n (a_{n - 1})

b_{1} = 1, b_{n} = c o s (b_{n - 1})

{lim}_{n \to \infty} b_{n}
