Homework Statement



solve the limit:

[tex]\lim_{x\rightarrow0}\frac{2cos^{2}(x)-cos(x)-3}{x^{2}}[/tex]


The Attempt at a Solution



Ok so i factored out the numerator, but i don't know where to go from there any help please.

[tex]\lim_{x\rightarrow0}\frac{2cos^{2}(x)-cos(x)-3}{x^{2}}=\lim_{x\rightarrow0}=\frac{(2cos(x)-3)(cos(x)+1)}{x^{2}}[/tex]

Alright never mind i got limit as x approaches 0 to equal -∞.
