Infinite Limits Lesson 2.5
Previous Mention of Discontinuity • A function can be discontinuous at a point • The function goes to infinity at one or both sides of the point, known as a pole • Example • Enter this function into the Y= screen of your calculator • Use standard zoom
A Special Discontinuity • Using standard-zoom • Note results oftables (♦Y)
Definition of Infinite Limits • Given function f defined for all reals on open interval containing c (except possibly x = c)
Definition of Infinite Limits M --------------
Vertical Asymptotes • When f(x) approachesinfinity as x → c • Note some calculatorsdraw false asymptote • Vertical asymptotes generated byrational functions when g(x) = 0 c
Properties of Infinite Limits • Given Then • Sum/Difference • Product • Quotient
Try It Out • Find vertical asymptote • Find the limit • Determine the one sided limit
