Markme123 0 Report post Posted October 29, 2003 I don't expect many (or any) answers but... How do you test the behavior of a function near a vertical asymptote. <talking about plotting here> Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest subliminal_animal Report post Posted October 29, 2003 Why are you asking homework questions on a message board? And not even a trigonometry message board. That's what you have a teacher and a bunch of other jerks in your class for. That question actually seems a little vague. Or maybe it's pretty direct, and I'm just ignorant about the particular concept here. As best as I can tell you, a curve can never touch a vertical asymptote, if that's a serviceable answer to what you're asking. And, being a man of many myriad talents, I can also find the vertical and horizontal asymptotes of a given function. Look, but don't touch. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest JacK Report post Posted October 31, 2003 Vertical? That's 'x is not equal whatever' right? If so, you just sub in x values close to it is what I've always done. Like for two, I just sub in 1.999999999 using a calculater. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
