Medium MCQ +4 / -1 PYQ · JEE Mains 2022

$$\lim\limits_{x \rightarrow \frac{\pi}{4}} \frac{8 \sqrt{2}-(\cos x+\sin x)^{7}}{\sqrt{2}-\sqrt{2} \sin 2 x}$$ is equal to

  1. A 14 Correct answer
  2. B 7
  3. C 14$\sqrt2$
  4. D 7$\sqrt2$

Solution

<p>$$\mathop {\lim }\limits_{x \to {\pi \over 4}} {{8\sqrt 2 - {{(\cos x + \sin x)}^7}} \over {\sqrt 2 - \sqrt 2 \sin 2x}}\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\left( {{0 \over 0}\,\mathrm{form}} \right)$$</p> <p>$$ = \mathop {\lim }\limits_{x \to {\pi \over 4}} {{ - 7{{(\cos x + \sin x)}^6}( - \sin x + \cos x)} \over { - 2\sqrt 2 \cos 2x}}$$ using $\mathrm{L-H}$ Rule</p> <p>$$ = \mathop {\lim }\limits_{x \to {\pi \over 4}} {{56(\cos x - \sin x)} \over {2\sqrt 2 \cos 2x}}\,\,\left( {{0 \over 0}} \right)$$</p> <p>$$ = \mathop {\lim }\limits_{x \to {\pi \over 4}} {{ - 56(\sin x + \cos x)} \over { - 4\sqrt 2 \sin 2x}}$$ using $\mathrm{L-H}$ Rule</p> <p>$= 7\sqrt 2 \,.\,\sqrt 2 = 14$</p>
