The Correct Option is D

Solution and Explanation

Consider $\displaystyle \lim_{x\to0} \frac{sin\left(\pi\,cos^{2} x\right)}{x^{2}}$ $= \displaystyle \lim_{x\to0} \frac{sin\left(\pi-\pi\,sin^{2} x\right)}{x^{2}} $ $\left[\because sin \left(\pi - \theta\right) = sin \,\theta\right]$ $= \displaystyle \lim _{x\to 0} \frac{sin\left(\pi \,sin^{2} x\right)}{\pi \,sin^{2}x}\times\frac{\left(\pi \,sin^{2} x\right)}{x^{2}} = \pi$
