=lim_(x→0)  ((2sin^2 2x)/x^2 )   =lim_(x→0)  8(((sin2x)/(2x)))^2 =8 ✓

$$={lim}_{{x}\rightarrow\mathrm{0}} \:\frac{\mathrm{2}{sin}^{\mathrm{2}} \mathrm{2}{x}}{{x}^{\mathrm{2}} }\: \\ $$$$={lim}_{{x}\rightarrow\mathrm{0}} \:\mathrm{8}\left(\frac{{sin}\mathrm{2}{x}}{\mathrm{2}{x}}\right)^{\mathrm{2}} =\mathrm{8}\:\checkmark \\ $$

Solution: NB that  lim_(x→0) ((1−cosax)/x^2 )=(a^2 /2)  then; lim_(x→0) ((1−cos4x)/x^2 )=(4^2 /2)=((16)/2)=8  Mf

$$\boldsymbol{{Solution}}:\:\boldsymbol{{NB}}\:\boldsymbol{{that}}\:\:\boldsymbol{{li}}\underset{\boldsymbol{{x}}\rightarrow\mathrm{0}} {\boldsymbol{{m}}}\frac{\mathrm{1}−\boldsymbol{{cosax}}}{\boldsymbol{{x}}^{\mathrm{2}} }=\frac{\boldsymbol{{a}}^{\mathrm{2}} }{\mathrm{2}} \\ $$$$\boldsymbol{{then}};\:\boldsymbol{{li}}\underset{\boldsymbol{{x}}\rightarrow\mathrm{0}} {\boldsymbol{{m}}}\frac{\mathrm{1}−\boldsymbol{{cos}}\mathrm{4}\boldsymbol{{x}}}{\boldsymbol{{x}}^{\mathrm{2}} }=\frac{\mathrm{4}^{\mathrm{2}} }{\mathrm{2}}=\frac{\mathrm{16}}{\mathrm{2}}=\mathrm{8} \\ $$$$\boldsymbol{{Mf}} \\ $$

= lim_(x→0)  ((1−cos^2 4x)/(x^2 (1+cos 4x)))   = lim_(x→0)  (((sin 4x)/x))^2 . lim_(x→0)  (1/(1+cos 4x))   = 16×(1/2)= 8

$$=\:\underset{{x}\rightarrow\mathrm{0}} {\mathrm{lim}}\:\frac{\mathrm{1}−\mathrm{cos}\:^{\mathrm{2}} \mathrm{4x}}{\mathrm{x}^{\mathrm{2}} \left(\mathrm{1}+\mathrm{cos}\:\mathrm{4x}\right)} \\ $$$$\:=\:\underset{{x}\rightarrow\mathrm{0}} {\mathrm{lim}}\:\left(\frac{\mathrm{sin}\:\mathrm{4x}}{\mathrm{x}}\right)^{\mathrm{2}} .\:\underset{{x}\rightarrow\mathrm{0}} {\mathrm{lim}}\:\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{1}+\mathrm{cos}\:\mathrm{4x}} \\ $$$$\:=\:\mathrm{16}×\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{2}}=\:\mathrm{8} \\ $$
