i think that it will be n->infinity then


cosx/2 cosx/4..............................cosx/2n=sin x/2nsin x/2n (u can get this relation by induction or dividing n * by2 on lhs)


limn->infinitysin x/2nsinx/2n (div n mul by x/2n sinx/2/x/2n becomes 1 and 2n will be cancelled out and we get the ans sinx/x)


pls tell me if im wrong

i m saying that instead of having x  tends to infinity it will be n tends to infinity otherwise the ans can't be sinx/x because if x tends to infinity  then the ans can't be in terms of X


I REQUEST PLS CHECK THE QUES AGAIN

2nd one is really easy.




 


The critical points are the ones where sin x = 1 or sin x = -1. Here the limit is 1




 


for -1< sin x< 1 the limit is 0. So the points of discontinuity are:
