Chapter 1.5 Limits of Exponential, Logarithmic and Trigonometric Function

1) The limits of various trigonometric, exponential, and logarithmic functions are investigated through a table of values and direct evaluation. 2) Key limits include limx→0 sin(x)/x = 1, limex→∞ bx = +∞ if b > 1, and limex→-∞ bx = 0 if 0 < b < 1. 3) The document also provides basic properties for exponential and logarithmic functions, such as limx→∞ logb(x) = ∞ if b > 1, and limx→∞ ex = +∞.
