D) $ 4a $
Show Answer
Answer:
Correct Answer: C
Solution:
[c] We have $ \underset{x\to \infty }{\mathop{\lim }},{2^{x-1}}\tan ( \frac{a}{2^{x}} )=\underset{x\to \infty }{\mathop{\lim }},\frac{a}{2}\frac{\tan ( \frac{a}{2^{x}} )}{( \frac{a}{2^{x}} )}( \frac{0}{0}form ) $ $ =\frac{a}{2}\underset{y\to 0}{\mathop{\lim }},\frac{\tan y}{y}=\frac{a}{2} $ $ ( wherey=\frac{a}{2^{x}} ) $
