Rational Functions in Form � 3 Types of Examples Dominant Term in denominator Dominant Terms Dominant Term in numerator AND denominator

Dominant term in DENOMINATOR Denominator gets bigger faster than numerator!!

Dominant term in DENOMINATOR Denominator gets bigger faster than numerator!!

Dominant term in NUMERATOR and DENOMINATOR Numerator and denominator both get large, but numerator

Dominant term in NUMERATOR and DENOMINATOR Numerator and denominator both get large, but numerator is 2 times as large. Finding Asymptote: 1. Get rid of negligible terms. 2. Simplify.

Dominant term in NUMERATOR Numerator gets larger faster!! No Horizontal Asymptote
