show that  lim_(x→0) ((tanx)/x)=1
$$\mathrm{show}\:\mathrm{that} \\ $$$$\underset{\mathrm{x}\rightarrow\mathrm{0}} {\mathrm{lim}}\frac{\mathrm{tanx}}{\mathrm{x}}=\mathrm{1} \\ $$$$ \\ $$$$ \\ $$

as x→0, tanx→(x+(x^3 /3)+0(x^3 ))  ⇒lim_(x→0) ((tanx)/x)=lim_(x→0) ((x(1+(x^2 /3)))/x)=lim_(x→0) (1+(x^2 /3))=1
$$\mathrm{as}\:\mathrm{x}\rightarrow\mathrm{0},\:\mathrm{tanx}\rightarrow\left(\mathrm{x}+\frac{\mathrm{x}^{\mathrm{3}} }{\mathrm{3}}+\mathrm{0}\left(\mathrm{x}^{\mathrm{3}} \right)\right) \\ $$$$\Rightarrow\underset{{x}\rightarrow\mathrm{0}} {\mathrm{lim}}\frac{\mathrm{tanx}}{\mathrm{x}}=\underset{{x}\rightarrow\mathrm{0}} {\mathrm{lim}}\frac{\mathrm{x}\left(\mathrm{1}+\frac{\mathrm{x}^{\mathrm{2}} }{\mathrm{3}}\right)}{\mathrm{x}}=\underset{{x}\rightarrow\mathrm{0}} {\mathrm{lim}}\left(\mathrm{1}+\frac{\mathrm{x}^{\mathrm{2}} }{\mathrm{3}}\right)=\mathrm{1} \\ $$

x → 0 , tan x → x  ⇒ lim_(x→0)  (x/x) = 1 QED
$${x}\:\rightarrow\:\mathrm{0}\:,\:\mathrm{tan}\:{x}\:\rightarrow\:{x} \\ $$$$\Rightarrow\:\underset{{x}\rightarrow\mathrm{0}} {\mathrm{lim}}\:\frac{{x}}{{x}}\:=\:\mathrm{1}\:\mathrm{QED} \\ $$
