As we learnt in 

Evalution of Trigonometric limit -

\lim_{x\rightarrow a}\:\frac{sin(x-a)}{x-a}=1

\lim_{x\rightarrow a}\:\frac{tan(x-a)}{x-a}=1

put\:\:\:\:\:x=a+h\:\:\:where\:\:h\rightarrow 0

Then\:it\:comes

\lim_{h\rightarrow 0}\:\:\frac{sinh}{h}=\lim_{h\rightarrow 0}\:\:\frac{tanh}{h}=1

\therefore\:\:\:\lim_{x\rightarrow 0}\:\:\frac{sinx}{x}=1\:\;\;and

\therefore\:\:\:\lim_{x\rightarrow 0}\:\:\frac{tanx}{x}=1

-

 

\lim_{x\rightarrow 0} \frac{\sqrt{1-cos2x}}{x\sqrt{2}}

\Rightarrow \lim_{x\rightarrow 0} \frac{\sqrt{2sin^2x}}{x\sqrt{2}}

\Rightarrow \lim_{n\rightarrow 0} \frac{\sqrt{2}}{\sqrt{2}}.\frac{ |sinx|}{x}

for x\rightarrow 0^{+} it is 1

for x\rightarrow 0^{-} it is -1

So limit does not exist.
