To determine the sign of the infinity, plug a number in that is to the right of 4 (greater than 4 - but not greater than 4.5). The sign of this answer will be the sign of the infinity. Since we got a positive answer when we plugged in a number to the right of 4 (greater than 4), the it is. 5 78. 5 5 79. 9 80. 10 10 10 81. 5 5 Vertical Asymptotes Determine the vertical asymptotes for the function.

Horizontal Asymptotes To find the horizontal asymptotes of a function, investigate f( ) classified as one of three cases. and f( ). Limits at infinity can be Case I. Degree of the numerator is less than the degree of the denominator (the function is bottom heavy). f( ) 0 and f( ) 0. The horizontal asymptote is y = 0. Case II. Degree of the numerator is the same as the degree of the denominator. The its and the horizontal asymptote are all equal to the ratio of the lead coefficients. Case III. Degree of the numerator is greater than the degree of the denominator (top heavy). The it is either (increases without bound) or (decreases without bound). This can be determined by the eponent of the quotient of the degrees in the numerator and denominator. If the eponent of the quotient of the degrees in the numerator and denominator is odd, then f( ) and f( ). If the eponent of the quotient of the degree is even, then f( ) and f( ). There is no horizontal asymptote. (If the degree of the numerator is eactly 1 more than the degree of the denominator, then there eists a slant asymptote, which is determined by long division or synthetic division.) Determine all Horizontal Asymptotes.

Rational Functions continuous everywhere ecept for values of that make the denominator zero. Piecewise Functions check the continuity at the endpoints of each branch. Trig Functions sine and cosine are continuous everywhere; tangent and secant have discontinuities at all odd multiples of ; cosecant and cotangent have discontinuities at all multiples of.
