The expression is $\"\"$ .

Graph the function $\"\"$ .

$\"\"$

Observe the graph:

As $\"\"$ tends to $\"\"$ from left hand side, $\"\"$ approaches to $\"\"$ .

As $\"\"$ tends to $\"\"$ from right hand side, $\"\"$ approaches to $\"\"$ .

Since the left hand side limit is equal to right hand side limit, the limit exists.
