The teacher who taught pre-calc got worse and worse at teaching, but never reach the line to get them fired.

I had As in math before I got that dipshit. He failed like half the class, everyone else got Cs and Ds.

I don’t like them apples.

They’re extreme at the limits.

Almost everything, but not quite.

I was expecting answers but got jokes, not disappointed, just enjoying the jokes.

As for asymptotes, many mathematical functions have a value they are going towards but never quite reach. One example would be to start with 1 and then halve it, then halve it, then halve it, and keep going forever. It will trend towards 0 but never ever reach it.

Another example of approaching 0 is y = 1/x which is a cool graph. There is a curve which starts just to the right of the Y axis at maximum Y value and comes almost straight down, curves out to 1,1 then shoots out along towards the X axis almost but never reaching it. The cool thing is it does the exact same in the lower left quadrant with the line coming from the negative X axis, passing -1,-1, the shooting down the Y axis.

You can keep asking, but over time you’ll learn less and less and never get the whole answer.

sth function approaches a straight line, why do you ask?

I could go on for a while, but probably would never quite get to the point.

Increasingly little.

My knowledge on them has its limits

I can identify them in a police line-up of geometry stuff.

well when a mommy asymptote and a daddy asymptote meet on opposite ends of an infinite grid, they give birth to a finite area that is carefully and lovingly defined, until the mommy asymptote runs away with a thick veiny fat curve that rules her world, and the daddy asymptote just stands there night-after-night watching them bisect each other

Introduced through trig functions, then calculus limits, then logarithms and exponentiation.

Nearly everything

sorry, but my memory doesn’t reach that far

It’s what happens when a very naughty function tries to divide by zero.
