Question #b7690 Calculus Limits Determining When a Limit does not Exist 1 Answer Andrea S. Aug 8, 2017 lim_(x->oo) x^2cos(1/x) = +oo Explanation: Substitute y=1/x. When x->oo, y->0^+, so: lim_(x->oo) x^2cos(1/x) = lim_(y->0^+) cosy/y^2 = oo graph{x^2cos(1/x) [-10, 10, -5, 5]} Answer link Related questions How do you know a limit does not exist?
