Solution

To estimate the value of the limit limθ0sin(5θ)tan(2θ)\lim_{\theta \to 0} \sin(5\theta) \tan(2\theta) using a table of values, follow these steps:

  1. Create a Table of Values: Choose values of θ\theta that are close to 0, both positive and negative. For example, you might choose θ=0.1,0.05,0.01,0,0.01,0.05,0.1\theta = -0.1, -0.05, -0.01, 0, 0.01, 0.05, 0.1.

  2. Calculate sin(5θ)\sin(5\theta) and tan(2θ)\tan(2\theta) for Each θ\theta: Use a calculator to find the values of sin(5θ)\sin(5\theta) and tan(2θ)\tan(2\theta) for each chosen θ\theta.

  3. Multiply the Results: For each θ\theta, multiply the values of sin(5θ)\sin(5\theta) and tan(2θ)\tan(2\theta) to get sin(5θ)tan(2θ)\sin(5\theta) \tan(2\theta).

  4. Observe the Trend: As θ\theta approaches 0, observe the trend in the values of sin(5θ)tan(2θ)\sin(5\theta) \tan(2\theta).

Here is an example table:

θsin(5θ)tan(2θ)sin(5θ)tan(2θ)0.10.47940.20270.09710.050.24740.10030.02480.010.049980.020000.001000000.010.049980.020000.00100.050.24740.10030.02480.10.47940.20270.0971 \begin{array}{|c|c|c|c|} \hline \theta & \sin(5\theta) & \tan(2\theta) & \sin(5\theta) \tan(2\theta) \\ \hline -0.1 & -0.4794 & -0.2027 & 0.0971 \\ -0.05 & -0.2474 & -0.1003 & 0.0248 \\ -0.01 & -0.04998 & -0.02000 & 0.0010 \\ 0 & 0 & 0 & 0 \\ 0.01 & 0.04998 & 0.02000 & 0.0010 \\ 0.05 & 0.2474 & 0.1003 & 0.0248 \\ 0.1 & 0.4794 & 0.2027 & 0.0971 \\ \hline \end{array}

From the table, as θ\theta approaches 0, the value of sin(5θ)tan(2θ)\sin(5\theta) \tan(2\theta) approaches 0.

  1. Confirm Graphically: If you have a graphing device, plot the function y=sin(5θ)tan(2θ)y = \sin(5\theta) \tan(2\theta) and observe the behavior as θ\theta approaches 0. The graph should show that the function approaches 0 as θ\theta approaches 0.

Therefore, the estimated value of the limit is:

limθ0sin(5θ)tan(2θ)=0.000 \lim_{\theta \to 0} \sin(5\theta) \tan(2\theta) = 0.000
