But I'd like to check to see if my answers are right.

1. 1/5
yes

Quote:
2. 1
No, for small x\ \tan(x) \approx x so (\tan(x))^2/x \approx x, so the limit is 0

Quote:
3. 0 <-- I think that one is wrong...
Again for small x\ \cos(x) \approx 1\ \tan(x) \approx x so [\cos(x) \tan(x)]/x \approx 1
the limit is 1
