Step-by-Step Verified Solution

lim⁡y→01+1+y4−2y4\mathop {\lim }\limits_{y \to 0} {{\sqrt {1 + \sqrt {1 + {y^4}} } - \sqrt 2 } \over {{y^4}}}

If you put y = 0 at 1+1+y4−2y4{{\sqrt {1 + \sqrt {1 + {y^4}} } - \sqrt 2 } \over {{y^4}}} it is in 00{0 \over 0} form. So we can use L' Hospital's Rule.

= lim⁡y→0121+1+y4×(121+y4)×4y34y3\mathop {\lim }\limits_{y \to 0} {{{1 \over {2\sqrt {1 + \sqrt {1 + {y^4}} } }} \times \left( {{1 \over {2\sqrt {1 + {y^4}} }}} \right) \times 4{y^3}} \over {4{y^3}}}

= lim⁡y→0121+1+y4×121+y4\mathop {\lim }\limits_{y \to 0} {1 \over {2\sqrt {1 + \sqrt {1 + {y^4}} } }} \times {1 \over {2\sqrt {1 + {y^4}} }}

= 142{1 \over {4\sqrt 2 }}
