Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \(-\frac{1}{4}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Let \(x=\cos \theta \Rightarrow x \rightarrow 1 \Rightarrow \theta \rightarrow 0\) \(\lim _{x \rightarrow 1} \frac{\sqrt{x}-1}{\left(\cos ^{-1} x\right)^2}=\lim _{\theta \rightarrow 0} \frac{(\sqrt{\cos \theta}-1)}{\theta^2}\)…
