Use pinching theorem to evaluate lim x-->1 ((x-1)sin(1/x-1))

Question

I'm confused in the pinch theorem analytically

Answer 1

note that if u = 1/(x-1) then what you have is

sin(u)/u

You have probably seen that this limit is 1, so follow the same argument.

Or, try google. A good discussion is at

Answer 2

Would it be 0?

Answer 3

you are correct. 1/(x-1) -> ∞
