Does cos(1/x^2) diverge?

• Math -

near x=0, yes. It oscillates faster and faster, and does not converge to any single value. In any interval (0,x) it assumes all values between -1 and 1.

What am I doing wrong? Equation: sin2x = 2cos2x Answers: 90 and 270 .... My Work: 2sin(x)cos(x) = 2cos(2x) sin(x) cos(x) = cos(2x) sin(x) cos(x) = 2cos^2(x) - 1 cos(x) (+/-)\sqrt{1 - cos^2(x)} = 2cos^2(x) - 1 cos^2(x)(1 - cos^2(x))

For the sequences below, find if they converge or diverge. If they converge, find the limit. an=(3^(n+2))/(5^n) an=cos(2/n) an=(2^(1+3n))^1/n I am unsure about how to get started on these problems so some assistance would be great.
