Limits

When studying Calculus, you need to understand the concept of limits. The definition of limits is given below. For more explanation on calculus limits, see calculus limits explained.

 

What are limits in Calculus?

A is called the limit of the function f(x) if f(x) gets close to the value of A as x approaches c. The limit of f(x) is mathematically written as:

limits

This can also be read as: The limit of f(x) is A as x approaches c.

Note that c can be +/-∞ and A can also be +/-∞.

 
Solving calculus problems involving limits

Some calculus limit problems are harder to solve than others because the function f(x) can be more complicated and x can approach a number that would make the function f(x) indefinable or x can approach plus or minus infinity. See Examples of How to Find Limits in Calculus for how to solve simple calculus limit problems. You can practice solving calculus limit problems here.
