As x approaches 2 from the right, the value of the function f(x) = (x - 2)^2 approaches
A.0
B.1
C.2
D.Does not exist
Explanation
Core Concept
The function f(x) = (x - 2)^2 approaches 0 as x approaches 2 from the right since the input (x - 2) approaches 0. This is because the function is continuous everywhere, and the limit of (x - 2)^2 as x approaches 2 is 0. Option B and C are incorrect since the function approaches 0, not 1 or 2. Option D is incorrect since the limit of f(x) as x approaches 2 does exist.
Correct Answer
A0
