Vertical asymptote:
Find the restriction on x. This is the easiest of the three asymptotes you will need to find (even if only two can show at a time). As a hyperbola is in the form:
, you only need to find the restriction on the denominator, namely denominator can never be zero. Hence, let the denominator equal to zero to find the vertical asymptote.
Horizontal asymptote:
Find the restriction on y. To do this, you need to simplify the top and bottom to its lowest terms. If it simplifies to a form such as:
, then the horizontal asymptote becomes y = a. You need to think to yourself, as x grows to infinite, and shrinks to negative infinite, what happens to the function? Does it slowly curve to a stop?
Oblique asymptote:
This is a pretty rare kind, but it still exists, so don't be naive to this sort of asymptote. This is a form of horizontal and vertical asymptote, only it's at an angle. That is, this asymptote is a set of x and y-coordinates that work in unison to produce a curvature or line.
Let's consider:
Now, in normal term, a horizontal asymptote would have a degree higher in the denominator than in the numerator. However, it's flipped in this case.
Now, you will need to long divide this set of polynomials to yield a straight y = x line, except it's been moved 11 units to the right to yield a y = x - 11 line.
Remember: these exist because the highest power is in the numerator and not the denominator.
