Example (a). Evaluate Lim sin 36.
a sin 39 _ 5, sin 30,
- 30
we take a = 30in (1):
sin 30 47; _-gin 30 _
® bi HP = 3 ti = 9
Lest anyone should think that (1) justifies us in assigning a value to the
nonsense symbol ain, we note that the ‘value suggested by (1) would be
in conflict with (3); vos also Exs. 30, 33 below.

29. The Chain Rule
Given y as a function of z, it is frequently convenient to think of y as
« function of an auxiliary variable u, where u in turn is a function of =. For
example, the formula of § 28 would fail entirely to find the derivative of
such a function as
ya Ver;
it wil eppeer presently that the difficulty may be overcome by merely
putting y = ~/u, where u = 2% + 1,
Let
y = f(u), where u = (x).
Assign to z an increment Ax, and denote b: i
