Learn how to find the vertical asymptote

The video tutorial explains how to find vertical asymptotes by setting the denominator of a function equal to zero. This concept is crucial for understanding limits in the next chapter. Vertical asymptotes occur at values not in the domain, specifically where the denominator equals zero. The tutorial provides a step-by-step guide to finding these asymptotes, concluding with an example where x equals 4 is identified as a vertical asymptote.
