These are thetangent line problemand the area problem. We will see in this and the subsequent chapters thatthe solutions to both problems involve the Limit An Informal That Involve A Formal Tangent Line ProblemChapter 2 in Reviewy (x)Lax a xy (x) L (x) Lx a 9/26/09 5:20 PM Page 67 Jones and Bartlett Publishers, LLC.
In the left-hand table in (2) we are letting (for example, is to the left of on the number line), whereas in the right-hand table . One-Sided Limits In general, if a function can be made arbitrarily close to a number L 1 by taking xsufficiently close to, but not equal to, a number a from the left, then we write f …
