1 Section 2.4 Infinite Limits 2.4 Infinite Limits Two more limit scenarios are frequently encountered in calculus and are discussed in this and the following sections. An infinite limit occurs when function values increase or decrease without bound near a point. The other type of limit, known as a limit at infinity, occurs when the independent variable x increases or decreases without bound. The ideas behind infinite limits and limits at infinity are quite different. Therefore, it is important to distinguish these limits and the methods used to calculate them. An Overview Infinite Limits Finding Infinite Limits Analytically Quick Quiz SECTION 2.4 EXERCISES Review Questions. Use a graph to explain the meaning of lim xøa + fhxl=-. 2. Use a graph to explain the meaning of lim xøa fhxl=. 3. What is a vertical asymptote? 4. Consider the function FHxL= fhxl with ghal= 0. Does F necessarily have a vertical asymptote at x= a?
