Limits

The document discusses various techniques for calculating limits in calculus, including: 1) Expanding and simplifying, factoring and canceling, getting a common denominator, multiplying by a conjugate, and using limits involving absolute value; 2) Finding asymptotes of rational functions and graphing rational functions with vertical and oblique asymptotes; 3) Evaluating infinite limits and limits of rational functions, as well as limits with radicals and trigonometric functions like sin(x)/x.
