Why are stars called main sequence?
They follow the trend line on the Hertz-Russell Diagram.
These are Hertzsprung-Russell Diagrams (HR Diagrams). The HR Diagram plots a star's luminosity (how bright it is) against how hot its surface is, using the sun as a base for luminosity.
The diagram below plots some well know stars on the sequence.

Stars are called main sequence because they predominantly spend the majority of their lifetime in this stable phase, during which they fuse hydrogen into helium in their cores.

When evaluating a one-sided limit, you need to be careful when a quantity is approaching zero since its sign is different depending on which way it is approaching zero from. Let us look at some examples.
