This GeoGebra example demonstrates the concept of infinite limits in calculus. It visualizes how a function approaches infinity near a vertical asymptote. Key construction elements include defining functions f and g, using delta x (Δx) for increments, and placing points A and B. Text1 provides dynamic labels. Ideal for high school or college students studying limits, asymptotes, and function behavior in pre-calculus or calculus courses.

GeoGebra Commands & Parameters

  1. f(x) = 1 / (x - 1)
  2. Numeric Δx(6.0)
  3. (1 - Δx, f(1 - Δx))
  4. (1 + Δx, f(1 + Δx))
  5. x = 1

AI Drawing Prompt Reference

Draw the graph of the function f(x) = 1 / (x - 1) to show how the function approaches infinity as x approaches 1. Use a delta x of 6 to plot points on both sides of x=1 and observe the asymptotic behavior near x=1.
