<s>[INST] How to calculate $\lim \limits_{x \to 0}{\frac{\sqrt{1 + x + x^2} - 1}{x}}$? I try to calculate $\lim \limits_{x \to 0}{\frac{\sqrt{1 + x + x^2} - 1}{x}}$. I've got $\frac{\sqrt{1 + x + x^2} - 1}{x} = \sqrt{\frac{1}{x^2} + \frac{1}{x} + x} - \frac{1}{x}$ but I don't know what to do next.
 [/INST] Hint:
Multiply the numerator and the denominator by $$\sqrt{1+x+x^2}+1.$$
