37. In a class of XI Mathematics teacher was explaining limits to students. In case of existence of limit if left hand and
right hand limits are equal and both exist then limit exist. It is also shown below.

Left hand limit is
f(a – 0) = lim f ( x ) = lim f ( a − h )

x → a− h →0

Similarly, right hand limit is
f(a + 0) = lim f ( x ) = lim f ( a + h )

x → a+ h →0

Existence of Limit: lim f ( x ) exists, if

(i) lim f ( x ) and lim f ( x ) both exist
x → a− x → a+

(ii)
lim f ( x ) = lim f ( x )
x → a− x → a+

On the basis of this information teacher ask students various questions as mentioned below
(i) Evaluate the left hand limit of the given function

1 + x ; 0 ≤ x ≤ 1
2
 at x = 1
2 − x ; x > 1

OR
Evaluate the right hand limit of the given function
1 + x 2 ; 0 ≤ x ≤ 1
 at x = 1
2 − x ; x > 1

cos x ; x > 0
(ii) Let f(x) = 
x + k ; x < 0
If limit exist find k.
|x − 4|
(iii) Show that lim does not exist.
x →4 x−4
38. The history of Indian playing cards begins with the circular
shaped Ganjafeh cards. The earliest mention of these come to
us from the Mughal Emperor Babur's memoirs. In his memoir
(dated June 1527), the founder of the Empire mentions having
sent a set of Ganjafeh to his friend Shah Hussain in Sindh.
It's from the late 15th century, probably made in the
Burgundian Netherlands territory, and very recognizable by
modern standards. There are 52 cards in four suits, with both
numbered and face cards.
(i) A card is drawn at random from a well-shuffled pack of 52 cards. Find the probability that it is either a king
or spade. 4
OR
(ii) 4 cards are drawn from a well-shuf.fled deck of 52 cards. What is the probability of obtaining 3 diamonds and
one spade ? 4
