  • qwen3.6:27b-mlx: pass 2026-10-03 — The solution correctly isolates the standard limit form using algebra and simplification, applies the constant multiple law, and evaluates the trigonometric limit. Each step changes only one aspect of the expression and uses valid labels from the vocabulary.

Proved: SymPy reduced the difference between the two sides to zero. Checked independently: a separate method, named above, confirmed it. Checked numerically: the two sides agree at every sampled point, which is evidence, not proof. Reviewed: a model or a person read it; that is all a sentence can have. Solution by gemma4:26b, checked 2026-10-03 with SymPy 1.14.0.
