\begin{block}{L'Hospital's Rule}
Suppose $f$ and $g$ are differentiable and $g'(x) \ne 0$ near $a$, and
\begin{talign}
\lim_{x\to a} \frac{f(x)}{g(x)}
\end{talign}
is an indeterminate form of type \alert<3->{$\frac{0}{0}$} or \alert<3->{$\frac{\infty}{\infty}$}.
Then
\begin{talign}
\lim_{x\to a} \frac{f(x)}{g(x)} = \lim_{x\to a} \frac{f'(x)}{g'(x)}
\end{talign}
if the limit on the right side exists or is $-\infty$ or $\infty$.
