  2. lim x->inf (1+x^2)e^-x = lim x->inf (1+x^2) / e^x
    Differentiate denominator and numerator (L Hospital Rule)
    lim x->inf (2x / e^x)
    Again apply L Hospital Rule,
    lim x->inf (2 / e^x)
    put x=infinity and the expression would become 0. (since 1/infinity = 0)
    So, the correct option is (A) 0.

    1. Yes, you are correct.
      If question is :
      lim x->inf(1+x^2)^e^x
      Then answer would be 1.

      Detailed Solution-
      Let us assume,
      f(x) = (1+x^2) and g(x) = e^x
      So it's a form of,
      lim x->inf f(x)^g(x)
      Now, we know, a^b = exp (b ln a)
      so, lim x->inf f(x)^g(x) = lim x->inf exp(g(x).ln f(x))
      => exp (lim x->inf g(x).ln f(x) )
      => exp (lim x->inf e^x.ln(1+x^2))

      After applying L hospital rule and putting the limit inside the brackets, the expression inside the bracket becomes 0.

      Now, exp(0) = 1

      Let me know in case of any query.
