4.5 - Indeterminate Forms and L’Hospital’s Rule
“For
€
limx→a
f (x)
g(x)where both
€
f (x) → 0 and g(x) → 0 as x → a
then the limit may or may not exist and is called an indeterminate form of type ”

Indeterminate Products
Where
€
limx→af (x) = 0 and lim
x→ag(x) = ∞
It is not clear what the value of
€
limx→af (x)g(x) if any, will be.
This limit is called an indeterminate form of type
€
0 • ∞
Solution: convert it to a quotient….
ex:
€
fg =f
1/g or fg =
g
1/ f
ex: xxx
