1i think it is =0
the value of:
lim [|sin x||x|]
x→0
[.] represents greatest integer function
|.| represents modulus....

3i got the answr as 1....bt the answer is given 0 in the ARIHANT DIFFERENTIAL CALCULUS book
1Try using the expansion of sinx and you will notice that sinx/x will always be less than 1 which impiles that greatest integer satisfying this is 0.
106or simply,
consider f(x) = sinx - x
f(0) = 0
f'(x) = cosx - 1 < 0 for all x
=> sinx - x is decreasing for x > 0
=> sinx < x for x > 0
=> |sinx| < |x| for all x ≠0
=> |sinx|/|x| < 1 for all x≠0
hence [|sinx||x|] = 0 for all x ≠0
and since you are calculating limit, lim(x→0) ≠x = 0
there fore x is non-zero hence the limit = 0
1but if we calculate the limit using the conventional methods,
both the L.H.L.and the R.H.L comes to 0
why the difference?
