Keep the original function visible

These worksheets preserve exact values and original-domain restrictions while separating direct continuity from removable-discontinuity reasoning.

Learning objective

What this activity builds

Use standard trigonometric limits to evaluate removable discontinuities.

Worked example

Find lim x→0 of sin(3x)/(2x).

Rewrite as (3/2)(sin(3x)/(3x)); the limit is 3/2.

Keep the original function and its excluded point visible while simplifying only for the limit.

Teaching notes

Make the practice count

  • Keep fractions, radicals, pi and powers of e exact.
  • Distinguish the original function from its continuous extension.
  • Use radians for every trigonometric expression.
