Solved Examples

  1. LHL (x0x \to 0^-): For x<0x < 0, f(x)=x2f(x) = x - 2. limx0(x2)=02=2\lim_{x \to 0^-} (x - 2) = 0 - 2 = -2.
  2. RHL (x0+x \to 0^+): For x>0x > 0, f(x)=x+2f(x) = x + 2. limx0+(x+2)=0+2=+2\lim_{x \to 0^+} (x + 2) = 0 + 2 = +2.
  3. Conclusion: Since LHL \neq RHL (22-2 \neq 2), the limit does not exist.
