Since the cotangent function is defined as


\cot(x) = (\cos(x))/(\sin(x))

we have that the cotangent equals zero at
(\pi)/(2), because we have


\cot\left((\pi)/(2)\right) = (\cos\left((\pi)/(2)\right))/(\sin\left((\pi)/(2)\right)) = (0)/(1) =0

So, the limit simply becomes


(\pi)/(2)\cdot 0 = 0
