The Correct Option is D

Approach Solution - 1

Given, $ lim_{x \to 0 } \frac{ \{(a - n) nx - tan \, x \} sin \, nx }{x^2} = 0 $
$\Rightarrow lim_{ x \to 0 } \Bigg \{ (a - n) n - \frac{ tan \, x}{x} \Bigg \} \frac{ sin \, n \, x}{ n \, x} \times n = 0 $
$\Rightarrow $ $\hspace12mm$ { (a - n) n - 1 } n = 0
$\Rightarrow $ $\hspace12mm$ (a - n ) n = 1 $ \Rightarrow a = n + \frac{1}{n}$.

Ans. The limit depicts how a function behaves at a certain point. The limit formula aids in the analysis of that function. The limit can therefore be described as:

"The behavior of some quantity dependent on an independent variable that tends or approaches a particular value"

  • Limit in mathematics merely provides the output's high or close values.
  • To calculate the derivatives, continuities, and integrals of functions, they are necessary.
  • The equation is written as limx→a f(x) = b.
  • According to the formulation above, the value of f(x) is equal to b if the limit approaches 'a.

Representations vary based on the type of limits. Here are some examples of it,

Right-hand side limits: It is represented as lim1 +f(x) = 1 

Left-hand side limit: It is represented as lim1 -f(x) = 1

Infinite limits: In this f (x) value has no limit and it can extend to anywhere in the plane. It is represented as limx→∞ f(x) = 1

One-sided infinite limits: Here, one side of f(x) is represented as infinity. These are represented as, lim1 + f(x) = ∞ or lim1 – f(x) = ∞

Let y = f(x) be a function of x. If at some point x = a, f(x) takes an indeterminate form, we can take the values of the function that is close to a. If these values tend to a unique number like x tends to a, then the obtained unique number is known as the limit of f(x) at x = a.

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).
