LIM-4.A—Determine limits of functions that result in indeterminate forms
- LIM-4.A Determine limits of functions that result in indeterminate forms.
- LIM-4.A.1 When the ratio of two functions tends to 0/0 or ∞/∞ in the limit, such forms are said to be indeterminate.
- Exclusion statement: There are many other indeterminate forms, such as ∞ − ∞, for example, but these will not be assessed on either the AP Calculus AB or BC Exam. However, teachers may include these topics, if time permits.
- LIM-4.A.2 Limits of the indeterminate forms 0/0 or ∞/∞ may be evaluated using L’Hospital’s Rule.
- Enduring understanding LIM-4: L’Hospital’s Rule allows us to determine the limits of some indeterminate forms.
