1 VERTICAL AND HORIZONTAL ASYMPTOTES Limits to Infinity and Beyond

2 I. Theorems: A.) B.)

3 D.) providing the root exists.

4 II. Vertical and Horizontal Asymptotes A.) Def: The line x = a is a vertical asymptote of the graph of the function f iff B.) Def: The line y = b is a horizontal asymptote of the graph of the function f iff

5 C.) Examples - Find the vertical and horizontal asymptotes for each of the following and describe the behavior at each vertical asymptote.

6 - V.A. – None - H.A. y = 2Why?

7 - V.A. – x = -3 - H.A. – y = 1

8 D.) Example – Evaluate the following limit:

10 III. Sandwich Theorem GRAPHICALLY

11 B.) Example - What do you know about the sin function?

13 C.) Example -

14 IV. Limit Theorems

15 V. Patching In order to make our trigonometric limits look like A-D of II, we may need to “PATCH” the trig expression. After, we apply our limit properties and verify on our calculator. A) Examples -
