Asymptotes of a Rational Function (Vertical, Horizontal, Oblique / Slant)

Examples, solutions, worksheets, games and activities to help PreCalculus students learn how to find all the asymptotes of a rational function (vertical, horizontal, oblique/slant).

Finding All Asymptotes of a Rational Function (Vertical, Horizontal, Oblique / Slant)
In this video, we look at a function and find the vertical asymptote and also conclude that there are no horizontal asymptotes, but that an oblique asymptote does exist. We then use long division to find the oblique asymptote.
