Limits | L'Hospital's Rule: Proof and 2 Examples

The video introduces L'Hospital's Rule, a tool in calculus for evaluating limits with indeterminate forms like 0/0 or infinity/infinity. It provides a proof of the rule using derivatives and demonstrates its application through examples. The video explains that L'Hospital's Rule involves taking derivatives of the numerator and denominator until the limit can be evaluated without indeterminate forms. It also highlights the importance of understanding which part of the fraction grows faster to determine the limit's behavior.

In the example given, what is the derivative of sine of x with respect to x?
