Proof: Limit of sinx/x as x approaches 0 with Squeeze Theorem | Calculus 1

We prove the limit of sinx/x as x goes to 0 equals 1 using the squeeze theorem and a geometric argument involving sectors and triangles on the unit circle. #calculus1 #apcalculus

    Because tan area is containing sector area and also sector area doesnt fill the tan area. Thats why this theorem only works with theta approaching 0 i.e. very small angles

    Hey it's just a thought but we know sinx for very small values of x is similarly equal to x, right. Then the limit would be lim x-> 0 (x/x) . We can cancel out the x and get 1. Can this be a ideal solution though ?

    I would say the fact that sinx is similar to x near 0 is proven by this limit, certainly not the other way around!

    Good question, and this part of the otherwise excellent proof here is guilty of 'hand waving.' But yes, the best way is to do a proof by contradiction. Just assume that the order of the areas are not as he states and you'll find contradictions which will prove that the area inequalities are valid!
