The video tutorial explains how to determine a limit using L'Hopital's Rule. It begins by identifying the indeterminate form of the limit and discusses why the initial form is not suitable for L'Hopital's Rule. The tutorial then demonstrates how to transform the function into a suitable form by finding a common denominator. After transforming the function, L'Hopital's Rule is applied twice to find the limit. The tutorial concludes with a graphical verification of the result, confirming that the limit is zero.
