asymptotes of graph of rational function


Let  f(x)=P(x)Q(x)  be a fractional expression where P(x) and Q(x) are polynomialsMathworldPlanetmathPlanetmathPlanetmath with real coefficients such that their quotient can not be reduced (http://planetmath.org/Division) to a polynomial.  We suppose that P(x) and Q(x) have no common zeros.

If the division of the polynomials is performed, then a result of the form

f(x)=H(x)+R(x)Q(x)

is gotten, where H(x) and R(x) are polynomials such that

degR(x)<degQ(x)

The graph of the rational functionMathworldPlanetmath f may have asymptotes:

  1. 1.

    Every zero a of the denominator Q(x) gives a vertical asymptote x=a.

  2. 2.

    If  degH(x)<1  (i.e. 0  or  -) then the graph has the horizontal asymptote y=H(x).

  3. 3.

    If  degH(x)=1  then the graph has the skew asymptote  y=H(x).

Proof of 2 and 3.  We have f(x)-H(x)=R(x)Q(x)0   as   |x|.

Remark.  Here we use the convention that the degree of the zero polynomialMathworldPlanetmath is  -.
