Finding the asymptotes

  • 👉 Learn how to find the vertical/horizontal asymptotes of a function. An asymptote is a line that the graph of a function approaches but never touches. The vertical asymptote is a vertical line that the graph of a function approaches but never touches. To find the vertical asymptote(s) of a rational function, we set the denominator equal to 0 and solve for x.
    The horizontal asymptote is a horizontal line which the graph of the function approaches but never crosses (though they sometimes cross them). A rational function has a horizontal asymptote of y = 0 when the degree of the numerator is less than the degree of the denominator. A rational function has a horizontal asymptote of y = c, (where c is the quotient of the leading coefficient of the numerator and that of the denominator) when the degree of the numerator is equal to the degree of the denominator. A rational function has no horizontal asymptote if the degree of the numerator is greater than the degree of the denominator.

    • @DerekMckean
      @DerekMckean 2 месяца назад

      This is Precalculus aka College Algebra + trig. The creator of this video probably is super happy, but graphing irrational expressions is a college algebra concept that should have been grasped before Calc 1.
      Although just like me, maybe you already took Precalculus and needed a refresher of Precalculus before taking your Calc exam. Why didn't i think of that before I commented? That's probably what it is. I had originally thought your college might have misplaced you.
      I always find myself reviewing stuff from Precalculus and intermediate algebra since math is not exactly like riding a bike.
      I've never taken Calc and now it's been 6 years since I have taken Precalculus.
      However, it's great this video helped you 2 years ago. And now that's been 2 full years, you are probably a senior in college or a junior in college having completed Calc 1, 2, and maybe 3.
      I think math can be cool to study when you're not in a class.

    The way the the students are made to understand the asymptotes is superb. By learning through this type of visuals an average student will become a master. I was thought these asymptotes in my first year of engineering in 1958-59. I am very happy that students at undergraduate level are becoming very knowledgeable and able to develop faster than our times. This scientific type of teaching deserves great appreciation.
