Special trig limits

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

Does not meet wp:GNG, no relevant context. Almost all statements in lead are unsourced. Opening statement is incomplete or even wrong, as these limits can be easily calculated with Hopital's rule DVdm (talk) 18:00, 18 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Delete as essay (or possibly how-to guide of bad quality).

On a side note, the method used to find lim (1-cos x)/(sin x) requires (1) an non-trivial separation as a product of two terms (it only works because at least one of the two terms has a nonzero defined limit) and (2) former knowledge of two non-trivial limits, sin x / x and sin x / (1 - cos x). Not exactly impressive. Tigraan^{Click here to contact me} 11:16, 21 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - This page looks like what you'd find on note sheets given by teachers to their students. Wikipedia is not a how-to guide, and any content on this page should be put in, if not already in, existing math articles. Eventhorizon51 ^(talk) 13:13, 21 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Pretty much, except it would be a bad teacher. There is no valuable content as far as I can see. Tigraan^{Click here to contact me} 10:27, 22 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]
