asymptote
In geometry, an asymptote is a straight line that approaches a curve on the graph and tends to meet the curve at infinity. An asymptote is a line that a graph of a function approaches but never touches or crosses as it extends towards infinity or a specific point. Asymptotes help to describe the behaviour of functions, particularly their end behaviour and behaviour near undefined points.
Asymptote Line Definition
Today, let's find the slant line hiding in a rational function — the oblique asymptote! 💡 Divide: the quotient IS the slant line, because the remainder fraction shrinks to 0 far out. This poster walks through 6 worked examples, including one function with BOTH a slant and a vertical asymptote. #MathFoundations #AlgebraSkills #ProblemSolving #RationalFunctions

Asymptote Line Slope
this is an horizontal asymptote graph.
A horizontal Asymptote is a horizontal line that is approached as x either approaches infinity or negative infinity.
Asyptotes are a part of the graph of a hyperbola. There are two for each hyperbola. Each branch of the hyperbola will approach but not cross the asymptotes.
The vertical asymptote is x=2. The vertical asymptote will get very close to the line but once again, will never touch it.
