Use l'Hospital's Rule to evaluate the following limit. At each step where l'HĂ´spital's Rule is applied, indicate the indeterminate form of the limit. \[ \lim _{\theta \rightarrow \frac{\pi}{2}} \frac{1-\sin \theta}{1+\cos 2 \theta} \]

Find the limit. Use l'Hospital's Rule where appropriate. If there is a more elementary method, consider using it. If l'Hospital's Rule doesn't apply, explain why. $ \displaystyle \lim_{\theta \to \pi /2} \frac{1 - \sin \theta}{1 + \cos 2\theta} $
Applications of Differentiation
Indeterminate Forms and l'Hospital's Rule
Use l'Hospital's Rule to evaluate the limit. $$ \lim _{\theta \rightarrow 0} \frac{\sin \theta^{2}}{\theta} $$

LHospital's Rule
Evaluate each limit (if it exists). Use L'Hospital's nule (if appropriate).$$\lim _{\theta \rightarrow \pi / 2} \frac{1+\sec \theta}{\tan \theta}$$
