The [[Twelfth Doctor]] once used the '''squeeze theorem''' to prove that <math>\lim_{\theta\to 0} \frac {sin \theta} {\theta} = 1</math>. During the [[Mathematical proof|demonstration]], the Doctor used [[Mathematics|mathematical]] concepts such as [[sine|sin]], [[cosine|cos]], [[tangent|tan]], [[inequality|inequalities]] and [[limit]].
