If we increase the number of sides of the polygon, what can you say about the polygon
with respect to the circle?
What is a limit?
Limit is the value of Y as X approaches a given #:
Lxfcx
)(lim
3 Kinds of Limits:
Left – Hand Limit
As x approaches from the left side of c
Right – Hand Limit
As x approaches from the right side of c.
Limit (double – sided)
As X approaches c from either direction.
Only exists if left-hand and right-hand are the same.

Limit Properties
These are important!
Limits to KnowLet b & c be real numbers and let n be a positive integer.
1. The limit of a constant function is the constant.
2. The limit at any x-value on the line y=x IS the x-value itself.
3. The limit at any x-value of any function of the form y = xn is the x-value raised to the nth power.

Another nice thing about limits…• They help us find holes in the graph.• Ex: What will happen at x=1?

While f(1) D.N.E., as x moves arbitrarily close to 1 from the left and right, f(x)
moves arbitrarily close to 3.
“The limit of f(x) as x approaches 1 is 3”
