$$\underset{{x}\rightarrow\infty} {\mathrm{lim}}\left({sin}\left({x}+\frac{\mathrm{1}}{{x}}\right)−{sinx}\right) \\ $$$$=\underset{{x}\rightarrow\infty} {\mathrm{lim}}\left(\mathrm{2}{cos}\left({x}+\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{2}{x}}\right){sin}\left(\frac{\mathrm{1}}{{x}}\right)\right)=\mathrm{0} \\ $$$$−\mathrm{1}\leqslant{cos}\left({x}+\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{2}{x}}\right)\leqslant\mathrm{1} \\ $$$$\underset{{x}\rightarrow\infty} {\mathrm{lim}}{sin}\frac{\mathrm{1}}{{x}}\rightarrow\mathrm{0} \\ $$

![lim_(x→∞) [ sin xcos (1/x)+cos xsin (1/x)−sin x ] = lim_(x→∞) [ sin x(cos (1/x)−1)+cos x sin (1/x) ] [ note lim_(x→∞) cos (1/x)−1 = 0 ∧ lim_(x→∞) cos xsin (1/x) = 0 because cos x oscilates between −1 and 1 ] thus lim_(x→∞) [ sin x(cos (1/x)−1)+cos xsin (1/x) ] = 0](https://www.tinkutara.com/question/Q119525.png)
