 let x = 1+m ∧ m→0  lim_(m→0)  (m/(cot ((((1+m)π)/2)))) = lim_(m→0)  [ (m/(−tan (((mπ)/2)))) ]  = −(2/π)

$$\:{let}\:{x}\:=\:\mathrm{1}+{m}\:\wedge\:{m}\rightarrow\mathrm{0} \\ $$$$\underset{{m}\rightarrow\mathrm{0}} {\mathrm{lim}}\:\frac{{m}}{\mathrm{cot}\:\left(\frac{\left(\mathrm{1}+{m}\right)\pi}{\mathrm{2}}\right)}\:=\:\underset{{m}\rightarrow\mathrm{0}} {\mathrm{lim}}\:\left[\:\frac{{m}}{−\mathrm{tan}\:\left(\frac{{m}\pi}{\mathrm{2}}\right)}\:\right] \\ $$$$=\:−\frac{\mathrm{2}}{\pi} \\ $$

Put x−1=t⇒(x→1∼t→0∼πt/2→0)  I= lim (x−1) tan (((πx)/2)) =lim_(t→0) [ttan((π(1+t))/2)]  =lim_(t→0) (−tcot((πt)/2))=lim_(t→0) (−(1/π))(((πt)/(sin((πt)/2)))×cos((πt)/2))  =lim_(t→0) (−(1/π))×(( 2)/((sin(πt/2))/((πt/2))))×cos(πt/2)=  −(2/π)×1=−(2/π)

$$\mathrm{Put}\:\mathrm{x}−\mathrm{1}=\mathrm{t}\Rightarrow\left(\mathrm{x}\rightarrow\mathrm{1}\sim\mathrm{t}\rightarrow\mathrm{0}\sim\pi\mathrm{t}/\mathrm{2}\rightarrow\mathrm{0}\right) \\ $$$$\mathrm{I}=\:\mathrm{lim}\:\left({x}−\mathrm{1}\right)\:\mathrm{tan}\:\left(\frac{\pi{x}}{\mathrm{2}}\right)\:=\underset{\mathrm{t}\rightarrow\mathrm{0}} {\mathrm{lim}}\left[\mathrm{ttan}\frac{\pi\left(\mathrm{1}+\mathrm{t}\right)}{\mathrm{2}}\right] \\ $$$$=\underset{\mathrm{t}\rightarrow\mathrm{0}} {\mathrm{lim}}\left(−\mathrm{tcot}\frac{\pi\mathrm{t}}{\mathrm{2}}\right)=\underset{\mathrm{t}\rightarrow\mathrm{0}} {\mathrm{lim}}\left(−\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\pi}\right)\left(\frac{\pi\mathrm{t}}{\mathrm{sin}\frac{\pi\mathrm{t}}{\mathrm{2}}}×\mathrm{cos}\frac{\pi\mathrm{t}}{\mathrm{2}}\right) \\ $$$$=\underset{\mathrm{t}\rightarrow\mathrm{0}} {\mathrm{lim}}\left(−\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\pi}\right)×\frac{\:\mathrm{2}}{\frac{\mathrm{sin}\left(\pi\mathrm{t}/\mathrm{2}\right)}{\left(\pi\mathrm{t}/\mathrm{2}\right)}}×\mathrm{cos}\left(\pi\mathrm{t}/\mathrm{2}\right)= \\ $$$$−\frac{\mathrm{2}}{\pi}×\mathrm{1}=−\frac{\mathrm{2}}{\pi} \\ $$

lim_(x→1)  (x−1)cot((π/2) − ((πx)/2))  = lim_(x→1)  (x−1)cot(π/2)(1−x)  = lim_(x→1)  (((π/2)(1−x)×(−1))/((π/2)tan(π/2)(1−x))) = −(2/π)

$$\underset{{x}\rightarrow\mathrm{1}} {{lim}}\:\left({x}−\mathrm{1}\right){cot}\left(\frac{\pi}{\mathrm{2}}\:−\:\frac{\pi{x}}{\mathrm{2}}\right) \\ $$$$=\:\underset{{x}\rightarrow\mathrm{1}} {{lim}}\:\left({x}−\mathrm{1}\right){cot}\frac{\pi}{\mathrm{2}}\left(\mathrm{1}−{x}\right) \\ $$$$=\:\underset{{x}\rightarrow\mathrm{1}} {{lim}}\:\frac{\frac{\pi}{\mathrm{2}}\left(\mathrm{1}−{x}\right)×\left(−\mathrm{1}\right)}{\frac{\pi}{\mathrm{2}}{tan}\frac{\pi}{\mathrm{2}}\left(\mathrm{1}−{x}\right)}\:=\:−\frac{\mathrm{2}}{\pi} \\ $$
