Simplify Expression: First, let's simplify the expression inside the tangent function. We have:tan[4π−4+(1+n1)a]Since α is a rational number, we can denote it as α=qp where p and q are integers. The expression (1+n1)a can be approximated as 1 when n approaches infinity, because (1+n1) tends to 1 and any power of 1 is still 1. So, the expression inside the tangent function simplifies to:α2
Calculate Angle: Now, let's calculate the exact value of the angle inside the tangent function:(π−4)/4+1=π/4−1+1=π/4So, the expression simplifies to:tan(π/4)We know that tan(π/4)=1, so the expression inside the limit becomes:(1)(n)
Evaluate Limit: Since (1)(n) is simply 1 for any value of n, the limit as n approaches infinity of (1)(n) is just 1. Therefore, the limit of the original expression is: n→∞lim(tan[4π−4+(1+n1)(a)])(n)=1
