$lim_{x \to π} \sin (x + \sin (x))$

Step 1

Move the limit inside the trig function because sine is continuous.

$\sin (lim_{x \to π} x + \sin (x))$

Step 2

Split the limit using the Sum of Limits Rule on the limit as $x$ approaches $π$ .

$\sin (lim_{x \to π} x + lim_{x \to π} \sin (x))$

Step 3

Move the limit inside the trig function because sine is continuous.

$\sin (lim_{x \to π} x + \sin (lim_{x \to π} x))$

Step 4

Evaluate the limits by plugging in $π$ for all occurrences of $x$ .
