    A vertical translation means composing the function ⁠ + ⁠ with f, for some constant b, resulting in a graph consisting of the points ⁠ (, +) ⁠. Each point ⁠ ( x , y ) {\displaystyle (x,y)} ⁠ of the original graph corresponds to the point ⁠ ( x , y + b ) {\displaystyle (x,y+b)} ⁠ in the new graph, which pictorially results in a ...

    A common example of a vertical asymptote is the case of a rational function at a point x such that the denominator is zero and the numerator is non-zero. If a function has a vertical asymptote, then it isn't necessarily true that the derivative of the function has a vertical asymptote at the same place. An example is

    Next, the cube is rotated ±45° about the vertical axis, followed by a rotation of approximately 35.264° (precisely arcsin 1 ⁄ √ 3 or arctan 1 ⁄ √ 2, which is related to the Magic angle) about the horizontal axis. Note that with the cube (see image) the perimeter of the resulting 2D drawing is a perfect regular hexagon: all the black ...
