L'Hôpital's Rule is a method for finding limits of functions which evaluate to 0/0. 3. Comments: (A) If f'(a) = g'(a) = 0, Then we may apply L'Hopital's Rule again. (B) NOTE: L'Hopital's Rule does NOT apply if either the numerator or denominator is NOT equal to 0. 4. Examples: 5. Notes: 6. Assignment: p. 284 (1, 3-7, 10, 39) |
