Limit of x/[Sqrt(x^2+r^2)*r^2]

[Repetit]

Can someone tell me how to show that the value of

x/[Sqrt(x^2+r^2)*r^2]

approaches 1/r^2 when x approaches infinity? Cant figure out how to show this analytically, but by plotting the function it is obvious.

Btw, how do I get latex graphics to work?? It doesn't really work when I preview the post.

Thanks!

to use latex use and.
and as for the limit.. as x goes to infinity, \sqrt{x^2+r^2} goes to x, because r^2 is much smaller and can be neglected.
so you get \frac{x}{xr^2}
and as you can see the x's are canceled out giving \frac{1}{r^2}

Change the x in the numerator to sqrt(x^2) the multiply top and bottom by sqrt(1/(x^2))

Thank you for the quick answers! I see it clearly now :-)
