Answer
Horizontal asymptotes are horizontal lines that the graph of the function approaches as x tends to +∞ or −∞.
As the name indicates they are parallel to the x-axis.
Vertical asymptotes are vertical lines (perpendicular to the x-axis) near which the function grows without bound.
Vertical asymptotes mark places where the function has no domain.
