$\frac{lim_{x \to 0} x + \sin (x)}{\tan (x)}$

Step 1

Split the limit using the Sum of Limits Rule on the limit as $x$ approaches $0$ .

$\frac{lim_{x \to 0} x + lim_{x \to 0} \sin (x)}{\tan (x)}$

Step 2

Move the limit inside the trig function because sine is continuous.

$\frac{lim_{x \to 0} x + \sin (lim_{x \to 0} x)}{\tan (x)}$

Step 3

Evaluate the limits by plugging in $0$ for all occurrences of $x$ .

Step 4.1.1

The exact value of $\sin (0)$ is $0$ .

$\frac{0 + 0}{\tan (x)}$

Step 4.1.2

Add $0$ and $0$ .

$\frac{0}{\tan (x)}$

Step 4.2

Rewrite $\tan (x)$ in terms of sines and cosines.

$\frac{0}{\frac{\sin (x)}{\cos (x)}}$

Step 4.3

Multiply the numerator by the reciprocal of the denominator.

$0 \frac{\cos (x)}{\sin (x)}$

Step 4.4

Multiply $0$ by $\frac{\cos (x)}{\sin (x)}$ .

$0$
