Step 1 :
\The expression is
.
Let
.
Construct the table of values for different values of x from each side :
\| x | \![]() | \
![]() | \
![]() | \
![]() | \
![]() | \
\
| \
![]() | \
![]() | \
![]() | \
![]() | \
![]() | \
![]() | \
![]() | \
Observe the table :
\As x approaches 0 from each side, the value of
tends to 0.5.

\
Solution :
\
