yes, you need to find the limits,
for example if you want to find horizontal asymptotes, you need to find the limit x--> +-infinity f(x),
for vertical asymptotes, you need to look for the points where f(x) is NOT defined,
and then take the limits to those points of f(x)

i think for the vertical its f(0) and i think the horizontal is the limit of x=0 but its been a whole year since i've looked at calculus

Yes, look for zero divisors and behavior as x approaches infinity.

simply equal your equation to zero and find the unknown value.suppose you get x=2,then this line is your assymptote....hope that is what you meant dear.

Yes there is - can you come back with an example - then I would have something concrete to explain

There is, but I can't remember how.
I think you have to isolate y.
