Step 1.1

Split the limit using the Sum of Limits Rule on the limit as $x$ approaches $0$ .

$lim_{x \to 0} x^{2} + lim_{x \to 0} 1$

Step 1.2

Move the exponent $2$ from $x^{2}$ outside the limit using the Limits Power Rule.

${(lim_{x \to 0} x)}^{2} + lim_{x \to 0} 1$

Step 1.3

Evaluate the limit of $1$ which is constant as $x$ approaches $0$ .

${(lim_{x \to 0} x)}^{2} + 1$

Step 2

Evaluate the limit of $x$ by plugging in $0$ for $x$ .

$0^{2} + 1$
