The correct answer is: 6

Given limx0cos(sinx)-cosxx4=f0

limx02sinsinx+x2sinx-sinx2x4=1k

limx02sinsinx+x2sinx-sinx2sinx+x2x-sinx2x4×sinx+x2x-sinx2=1k

limx02sinx+x2xx-sinx2x3=1k, limx0sinxx=1

2limx0sinx+x2xlimx0x-sinx2x3=1k

Apply L'Hospital rule for an indeterminate form of 00, we get, 

2×(1+1)2×12×16=1 k

k=6
