Answer

$-\frac{\pi}{2}$

Work Step by Step

Since $\lim\limits_{x \to \infty}\frac{x^{2}+9}{9-x}=\lim\limits_{x \to \infty}-\frac{x^{2}}{x}=\lim\limits_{x \to \infty}-x=-\infty$ And $\lim\limits_{t \to -\infty}tan^{-1}(t)=-\frac{\pi}{2}$ Then $\lim\limits_{x \to \infty} tan^{-1}(\frac{x^{2}+9}{9-x} )=-\frac{\pi}{2}$
