Lesson 1 Notes –Graphing Rational Functions -To graph rational functions
Definitions Rational function – function defined by a quotient of polynomials
Asymptotes Vertical asymptote – vertical line which the graph approaches but never touches (where x is undefined) In rational equations: x = h is the equation for the vertical asymptote
Asymptotes Horizontal asymptote – horizontal line which the graph approaches but never touches In rational equations: y = k is the equation for the horizontal asymptote
Example Graph: 1. 2.
