Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
What is an asymptote?
In math, an asymptote is a line that a function approaches, but never touches. The function curve gets closer and closer to the asymptote as it extends further out, but it never intersects the asymptote.
What are the 3 types of asymptotes?
There are 3 types of asymptotes: horizontal, vertical, and oblique.
what is a horizontal asymptote?
A horizontal asymptote is a horizontal line that a function approaches as it extends toward infinity in the x-direction.
