1.2.6. Limits involving Radical Functions

*rationalize the expression by multiplying the conjugate


(x approaches a : 𝒙 → 𝒂)
Example 16: Evaluate
𝑥
lim
𝑥→0 √9𝑥 +4−2
0 0
lim = 𝑢𝑛𝑑𝑒𝑓𝑖𝑛𝑒𝑑
𝑥→0 √9(0) +4−2 0

Solution:

𝑥 (√9𝑥 + 4 + 2)
= lim ∙
𝑥→0 (√9𝑥 + 4 − 2) (√9𝑥 + 4 + 2)

𝑥(√9𝑥 + 4 + 2)
= lim
𝑥→0 (9𝑥 + 4) + 2√9𝑥 + 4 − 2√9𝑥 + 4 − 4

𝑥(√9𝑥 + 4 + 2)
= lim
𝑥→0 9𝑥
√9𝑥 + 4 + 2
= lim
𝑥→0 9
√9(0) + 4 + 2 √4 + 2 𝟒
= lim = =
𝑥→0 9 9 𝟗

Example 17: Evaluate

√𝑡 + 2 − √3𝑡 − 2
lim
𝑡→2 2−𝑡
Solution:

(√𝑡 + 2 − √3𝑡 − 2) (√𝑡 + 2 + √3𝑡 − 2)


= lim ∙
𝑡→2 2−𝑡 (√𝑡 + 2 + √3𝑡 − 2)
2 2
(√𝑡 + 2) + (√𝑡 + 2)(√3𝑡 − 2) − (√𝑡 + 2)(√3𝑡 − 2) − (√3𝑡 − 2)
= lim
𝑡→2 (2 − 𝑡)(√𝑡 + 2 + √3𝑡 − 2)
(𝑡 + 2) − (3𝑡 − 2)
= lim
𝑡→2 (2 − 𝑡)(√𝑡 + 2 + √3𝑡 − 2)

2
−2𝑡 + 4
= lim
𝑡→2 (2 − 𝑡)(√𝑡 + 2 + √3𝑡 − 2)
2(2 − 𝑡)
= lim
𝑡→2 (2 − 𝑡)(√𝑡 + 2 + √3𝑡 − 2)
2
= lim
𝑡→2 (√𝑡 + 2 + √3𝑡 − 2)
2 2 𝟏
= = =
√2 + 2 + √3(2) − 2 4 𝟐

(x approaches ±∞ ∶ 𝒙 → ±∞)

√𝒙𝟐 = 𝒙

Example 19: Evaluate


1 − 2𝑥
lim
𝑥→∞ √𝑥 2 +3

Example 20: Evaluate

3√9𝑥 2 − 1
lim
𝑥→−∞ 6𝑥 + 5
