Find the value of : $\lim_{x\to\infty} \sqrt{x+\sqrt{x}}-\sqrt{x}$

I tried to multiply by the conjugate:

$\displaystyle\lim_{x\to\infty} \frac{\left(\sqrt{x+\sqrt{x}}-\sqrt{x}\right)\left(\sqrt{x+\sqrt{x}}+\sqrt{x}\right)}{\sqrt{x+\sqrt{x}}+\sqrt{x}}=\displaystyle\lim_{x\to\infty} \frac{x-x+\sqrt{x}}{\sqrt{x+\sqrt{x}}+\sqrt{x}}=\displaystyle\lim_{x\to\infty} \frac{\sqrt{x}}{\sqrt{x+\sqrt{x}}+\sqrt{x}}$

I don't even know if my rewriting has helped at all. How would I go about doing this?

Solution 1:

Dividing by $\sqrt{x}$ we get: $$\lim_{x\to\infty}\frac{1}{\sqrt{1+\frac1{\sqrt x}}+1}$$

Solution 2:

Put $x=\frac1{h^2}$

$$\lim_{x\to\infty}\left(\sqrt{x+\sqrt x}-\sqrt x\right)=\lim_{h\to0}\left(\sqrt{\frac1{h^2}+\frac1h}-\frac1h\right)=\lim_{h\to0}\frac{\sqrt{h+1}-1}h$$

$$=\lim_{h\to0}\frac{{h+1}-1}{h(\sqrt{h+1}+1)}=\lim_{h\to0}\frac1{(\sqrt{h+1}+1)}$$ Cancelling out $h$ as $h\ne0$ as $h\to0$
