The video tutorial explains how to find vertical asymptotes in logarithmic functions. It begins with an introduction to asymptotes, focusing on vertical asymptotes specific to logarithmic functions. The tutorial provides a step-by-step guide on solving for vertical asymptotes by equating the argument to zero and solving for x. Several examples are presented, each demonstrating the process of finding vertical asymptotes for different logarithmic functions. The video concludes with a summary of the key points discussed.

What is an asymptote in the context of graphing functions?

• A curve that the graph follows exactly

• A solid line that a graph never touches

• A dashed line that a graph approaches but never touches

• A point where the graph intersects the x-axis

Which type of asymptote is relevant for logarithmic functions?

• None of the above

• Slant asymptote

• Vertical asymptote

• Horizontal asymptote

How do you find the vertical asymptote of a logarithmic function?

• Set the base of the logarithm to zero

• Set the argument of the logarithm to zero
