The video tutorial explores the behavior of functions at extremities, focusing on limits as x approaches infinity. It discusses the symmetry of functions and how this affects their behavior at negative infinity. The tutorial provides both intuitive and algebraic approaches to understanding limits, including factorization and evaluation of limits. It explains the concept of oblique asymptotes and concludes with an introduction to the hyperbola, highlighting its symmetrical properties.
