Since both numerator and denominator go to zero as approaches 2 from the right, you need to use L'Hôpital's Rule.

If or and if exists, then



The rule also applies to one-sided limits, so:

If or and if exists, then



So take the first derivative of each of the numerator and denominator functions.
