Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) 2

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

We have, \[ \begin{aligned} \lim _{x \rightarrow 1} & \frac{\tan \left(x^{2}-1\right)}{x-1} \\ &=\lim _{x \rightarrow 1} \frac{\sec ^{2}\left(x^{2}-1\right) \cdot 2 x}{1} \quad \text { [using L'Hospital Rule] } \\ &=2 \sec ^{2} 0=2 \end{aligned} \]
