How to calculate the two limits?
$begingroup$
I got stuck on two exercises below
$$
limlimits_{xrightarrow +infty} left(frac{2}{pi} arctan x right)^x \
lim_{xrightarrow 3^+} frac{cos x ln(x-3)}{ln(e^x-e^3)}
$$
For the first one , let $y=(frac{2}{pi} arctan x )^x $, so $ln y =xln (frac{2}{pi} arctan x )$, the right part is $infty cdot 0$ type, but seemly, the L 'hopital's rule is useless. PS: I know the $infty cdot 0$ can be become to $frac{infty}{infty}$ or $frac{0}{0}$. But when I use the L 'hopital's rule to the $frac{infty}{infty}$ or $frac{0}{0}$ the calculation is complex and useless.
For the second one , it is $frac{infty}{infty}$ type, also useless the L 'hopital's rule is. How to calculate it ?

For $0timesinfty$ types, you can algebraically transform them into either $frac{0}{0}$ or $frac{infty}{infty}$, where you can try using L'Hopital's (though it may not help): just remember that $ab = frac{a}{ frac{1}{b} }$. And, L'Hopital's Rule is applicable for $frac{infty}{infty}$ indeterminates...

Rewrite $inftycdot 0$ as $infty cdot dfrac{1}{infty}$. Now you can apply L'Hopital's rule: $$lim_{xto +infty}dfrac{left(ln 2/picdotarctan x right)}{1/x}=lim_{xto +infty}dfrac{pi/2cdot arctan x}{-1/x^2}cdot dfrac{1}{1+x^2}=-dfrac{pi }{2}lim_{xto +infty}arctan xcdot dfrac{x^2}{1+x^2}$$

Without L'Hospital
$$y=left(frac{2}{pi} arctan (x) right)^ximplies log(y)=x logleft(frac{2}{pi} arctan (x) right) $$
Now, by Taylor for large values of $x$
$$arctan (x)=frac{pi }{2}-frac{1}{x}+frac{1}{3 x^3}+Oleft(frac{1}{x^4}right)$$
$$frac{2}{pi} arctan (x) =1-frac{2}{pi x}+frac{2}{3 pi x^3}+Oleft(frac{1}{x^4}right)$$ Taylor again
$$logleft(frac{2}{pi} arctan (x) right)= -frac{2}{pi x}-frac{2}{pi ^2 x^2}+Oleft(frac{1}{x^3}right)$$
$$log(y)=xlogleft(frac{2}{pi} arctan (x) right)= -frac{2}{pi }-frac{2}{pi ^2 x}+Oleft(frac{1}{x^2}right)$$ Just continue with Taylor using $y=e^{log(y)}$ if you want to see not only the limit but also how it is approached
