Question
Let f (x) = x2 cos 1 x , x _= 0 (a) Use a graphing calculator to sketch the graph of y = f (x). (b) Show that x2 x2 cos 1 x x2 holds for x _= 0 . (c) Use your result in (b) and the sandwich theorem to show that lim x0 x2 cos 1 x = 0
Solution
The first step in solving 3.4 problem number 1 trying to solve the problem we have to refer to the textbook question: Let f (x) = x2 cos 1 x , x _= 0 (a) Use a graphing calculator to sketch the graph of y = f (x). (b) Show that x2 x2 cos 1 x x2 holds for x _= 0 . (c) Use your result in (b) and the sandwich theorem to show that lim x0 x2 cos 1 x = 0
From the textbook chapter The Sandwich Theorem and Some Trigonometric Limits you will find a few key concepts needed to solve this.
