This is wrong The derivative of sin(hx) is hcos (hx) so limit will be h

The limit of s i n h x x \displaystyle\frac {sinhx}{x} as x approachs to 0 will result in 0 0 \frac{0}{0} (an indeterminate form). So, we need to derivate the top and bottom and take limit.

The derivative of sinh x = c o s h 0 = 1 \displaystyle\sinh x = \displaystyle cosh 0 = 1 , and the derivative of 0 = 1 0 = 1 . So, the limit is 1 1 = 1 \frac {1}{1} = \boxed {1}

yeap!!! nice solution.... That's L H o p i t a l s r u l e L'Hopitals rule
