is an imaginary line to
which a graph gets
closer and closer as
the x or y increases or
decreases its value
without limit.
1. VERTICAL
ASYMPTOTE
-is a vertical line on a
function f if the graph
increases or
decreases without
bound as the x values
approach from the
right or left.
To determine the vertical
asymptote of a rational
function,
Vertical asymptote is at x = 3,
As equating x^2 -6x+9 = 0 gives us (x-3)(x-3)=0
2. HORIZONTAL
ASYMPTOTE
-is the horizontal
line y=b of the
function f if f(x) gets
closer to b as x
increases or
decreases without
bound.
To determine the horizontal
asymptote of a rational function,
compare the
degree of the numerator n and
the degree of the denominator d.
N = 1, D = 2, N < D
N = 2, D = 2, N = D
EXAMPLE 4: Determine the horizontal asymptote of the ff. rational
functions:
N = 3, D = 2, N > D
3. OBLIQUE/SLANT
ASYMPTOTE
is a line that is neither
vertical nor horizontal.
It occurs when the
numerator of has a
degree that is one higher
than the degree of the
denominator.
To determine the oblique
asymptote of a rational
function,simply divide the
numerator by the
denominator by
either using long division or
synthetic division.
N = 2, D = 1, N > D
EXAMPLE 5: Determine the OBLIQUE
asymptote of the ff. rational functions:

Application
Graphing functions manually
requires us to consider a lot of details
if we want it to be as accurate and
precise as possible.
With the advancement of technology
in mathematics of this era,
GRAPHING RATIONAL
FUNCTIONS (or of any type) IS
MORE CONVENIENT AND
ACCURATE with these graphing
applications
Using the graphing calculator, such as Desmos/Geogebra,
IDENTIFY THE INTERCEPTS, ZERO/ES and
ASYMPTOTE/S of the following rational functions:
X-INTERCEPT: (9,0), Y-
INTERCEPT: (0,-3)
ZEROES: x = 9
ASYMPTOTE: Vertical x=-3
Horizontal , (since n=d), y =
1/1=1
X-INTERCEPT: (5,0), Y-INTERCEPT:
(0, 5)
ZEROES: x = 5
ASYMPTOTE: Vertical, x = -5
Oblique (since n>d), y = x -
