Limit involving $(\sin x) /x -\cos x $ and $(e^{2x}-1)/(2x)$, without l'Hôpital

$$\dfrac{\sin(x)}{x} = 1 - \dfrac{x^2}{3!} + \mathcal{O}(x^4)$$ $$\cos(x) = 1 - \dfrac{x^2}{2!} + \mathcal{O}(x^4)$$ $$\exp(2x) = 1 + 2x + \dfrac{(2x)^2}{2!} + \mathcal{O}(x^3)$$ Hence, $$\dfrac{\dfrac{\sin(x)}{x} - \cos(x)}{\exp(2x) - 1 -2x} = \dfrac{-\dfrac{x^2}{3!} + \dfrac{x^2}{2!} + \mathcal{O}(x^4)}{2x^2 + \mathcal{O}(x^3)} = \dfrac{\dfrac{x^2}{3} + \mathcal{O}(x^4)}{2x^2 + \mathcal{O}(x^3)} = \dfrac{\dfrac13 + \mathcal{O}(x^2)}{2 + \mathcal{O}(x)}$$ Hence, $$\lim_{x \rightarrow 0} \dfrac{\dfrac{\sin(x)}{x} - \cos(x)}{\exp(2x) - 1 -2x} = \dfrac16$$


You are given

$$\lim_{x\to 0}\ \frac{\dfrac{\sin x}{x} - \cos x}{2x \left(\dfrac{e^{2x} - 1}{2x} - 1 \right)}$$

I guess you know

$$\lim_{x\to 0}\dfrac{\sin x}{x}=1$$

$$\lim_{x\to 0} \dfrac{e^{2x} - 1}{2x}=1$$

The most healthy way of solving this is using

$$\frac{\sin x}{x} = 1-\frac {x^2}{6}+o(x^2)$$

$$\frac{e^x-1}{x}=1+\frac x 2 +o(x^2)$$

$$\cos x = 1-\frac {x^2}{2}+o(x^2)$$

This gives

$$\lim_{x\to 0}\ \frac{\dfrac{\sin x}{x} - \cos x}{2x \left(\dfrac{e^{2x} - 1}{2x} - 1 \right)}$$

$$\eqalign{ & \mathop {\lim }\limits_{x \to 0} \;\frac{{1 - \dfrac{{{x^2}}}{6} + o({x^2}) - 1 + \dfrac{{{x^2}}}{2} - o({x^2})}}{{2x\left( {1 + x + o({x^2}) - 1} \right)}} \cr & \mathop {\lim }\limits_{x \to 0} \;\frac{{\dfrac{{{x^2}}}{3} + o\left( {{x^2}} \right)}}{{2{x^2} + 2xo\left( {{x^2}} \right)}} \cr & \mathop {\lim }\limits_{x \to 0} \;\frac{{\dfrac{1}{3} + \dfrac{{o\left( {{x^2}} \right)}}{{{x^2}}}}}{{2 + 2\dfrac{{o\left( {{x^2}} \right)}}{{{x^2}}}}} = \dfrac{1}{6} \cr} $$ Note that

$$\eqalign{ & \frac{{o\left( {{x^2}} \right)}}{{{x^2}}} \to 0 \cr & \frac{{2o\left( {{x^2}} \right)}}{x} \to 0 \cr} $$
