What to Focus On

  • Limits describe the behavior of functions near a point
  • The limit may exist even if the function is not defined at that point
  • Left-hand limit: lim(x→a⁻) f(x) - approaching from the left

  • Sum Rule: lim[f(x) + g(x)] = lim f(x) + lim g(x)
  • Difference Rule: lim[f(x) - g(x)] = lim f(x) - lim g(x)
  • Product Rule: lim[f(x) × g(x)] = lim f(x) × lim g(x)

  • For rational functions f(x) = P(x)/Q(x) where deg(P) = m, deg(Q) = n:
  • If m < n: lim(x→∞) f(x) = 0
  • If m = n: lim(x→∞) f(x) = ratio of leading coefficients

Common Mistakes to Avoid

If f(a) is undefined, then lim(x→a) f(x) cannot exist

lim(x→0) (sin x)/x can be solved by direct substitution

The derivative f'(a) equals the slope of the secant line
