Analyze Behavior: Step 1: Analyze the behavior of the numerator and denominator near the point (0,0).Numerator: y2sin2(x) approaches 0 as both y and x approach 0.Denominator: x4+y4 also approaches 0 as x and y approach 0.
Apply Limit: Step 2: Apply the limit to the function.lim(x,y)→(0,0)x4+y4y2sin2(x).Since both the numerator and denominator approach 0, we consider the rate at which they approach 0.
Use Polar Coordinates: Step 3: Use polar coordinates to simplify the limit. Let x=rcos(θ) and y=rsin(θ), where r is the radius and θ is the angle. Then, x4+y4=r4cos4(θ)+r4sin4(θ)=r4(cos4(θ)+sin4(θ)). sin2(x)=sin2(rcos(θ)).
Substitute and Simplify: Step 4: Substitute polar coordinates into the limit. limr→0(r4(cos4(θ)+sin4(θ))r2sin2(θ)⋅sin2(rcos(θ))). This simplifies to r2(cos4(θ)+sin4(θ))sin2(θ)⋅sin2(rcos(θ)).
Evaluate Limit: Step 5: Evaluate the simplified limit.As r approaches 0, sin2(rcos(θ)) approaches 0 faster than r2, making the whole expression approach 0.
