Limits Exercises: Estimating and Evaluating Limits, Exercises of Mathematics

A collection of exercises aimed at helping students understand the concept of limits. The exercises involve estimating and evaluating limits using tables of values and simplifying fractions. The limits covered include those of simple functions, radicals, and rational expressions.

What you will learn

  • What is the limit of sin(x^2) as x approaches infinity?
  • What is the limit of (x^2 + x)/x as x approaches infinity?
  • What is the limit of (x^2 + 4x + 6)/(3x^2 + 1) as x approaches infinity?
  • What is the limit of x/x as x approaches infinity?
