We might try to prove this using the sandwich theorem as follows:

sin 1 and sin 1x x

0 0 0

1 sin 1 lim lim lim

x x x

Unfortunately, neither of these new limits are defined, since the left and right hand limits do not match.

We will have to be more creative. Just see if you can follow this proof. Don’t worry that you wouldn’t have thought of it.
