Limits of Rational Functions
There are certain behaviors of rational functions that give us clues about their limits. For the limits of rational functions, we look at the degrees of their quotient functions, whether the degree of the numerator function is less than, equal to, or greater than the degree of the denominator function. These characteristics will determine the behavior of the limits of rational functions.
