Evaluating Limits




There are two ways to evaulate limits.






1.) Dividing Out Technique:


Factor the numerator and denominator. Then divide out the common factors. Finally solve by direct subtitution.






Ex.



















2.) Rationalizing Technique:


Multiply by the conjugate of the numerator to rationalize the limit. This allows the fraction to be written in a simpler way so that direct substitution can take place.



Ex.
