firstly this is a good question... and is a bit tricky...
here comes 2 steps--
firstly solve the two lines for finding the point of intersection. i.e, x=[acosa-sina]/[sina-a]and y=[sin^2 a-a^2 cosa]/[sin^2 acosa-asinacosa].
then comes the important part, apply lim a tends to 0...[for my preference i used l Hospital’s Rule and the answer is (-1,_).. icouldnot do that sorry... BUT I AM SURE THE PROCESS IS O.K
