The Correct Option is C

Solution and Explanation

Here, $ lim_{ x \ to 0} (sin \ x)^{1/x} + lim_{x \to 0} \bigg(\frac{1}{x}\bigg)^{sin \ x} $
= 0 + $ lim_{ x \to 0} e^{log \bigg(\frac{1}{x}\bigg)^{sin \ x} } = \ e^{lim_{ x \to 0} \frac{log \ (1 / x)}{cosec \ x}}$ $\hspace21mm$ $\Bigg [ \begin{array}
\ lim_{ x \to 0} (sin \ x)^{1/x} \rightarrow 0 \\
as, (decimal)^\infty \ \ \rightarrow 0
\end{array} \Bigg ] $
Appling L'Hospital's rule, we get
$e^lim_{x \to 0 } \frac{ x \bigg( - \frac{1}{x^2}\bigg)}{ - cosec \ x \ cot \ x} = e^{lim_{x \to 0 } \frac{sin \ x}{ x} tan \ x} = e^0 = 1 $

Limits

A function's limit is a number that a function reaches when its independent variable comes to a certain value. The value (say a) to which the function f(x) approaches casually as the independent variable x approaches casually a given value "A" denoted as f(x) = A.

If limx→a- f(x) is the expected value of f when x = a, given the values of ‘f’ near x to the left of ‘a’. This value is also called the left-hand limit of ‘f’ at a.

If limx→a+ f(x) is the expected value of f when x = a, given the values of ‘f’ near x to the right of ‘a’. This value is also called the right-hand limit of f(x) at a.

If the right-hand and left-hand limits concur, then it is referred to as a common value as the limit of f(x) at x = a and denote it by lim x→a f(x).
