Expert Answer:
In calculus, l'Hôpital's rule pronounced [lopi?tal] (also called Bernoulli's rule) uses derivatives to help evaluate limits involving indeterminate forms. Application (or repeated application) of the rule often converts an indeterminate form to a determinate form, allowing easy evaluation of the limit.
In its simplest form, l'Hôpital's rule states that for functions f and g:
If
or
and
exists,
then 
The differentiation of the numerator and denominator often simplifies the quotient and/or converts it to a determinate form, allowing the limit to be evaluated more easily.
