Example 4: Notes To help graph the function and get the range, it’s important to note that this function had a “vertex-like” point at (0, -1) We find this point by first noting the following: the vertex of a quadratic function is exactly halfway between its zeroes (where y = 0). Therefore, when we flip a quadratic to get an reciprocal function, the reciprocal function will have asymptotes where the quadratic had zeroes (because 1/0 does not exist) SO, the “vertex-like” point of a reciprocal quadratic function is exactly halfway between its asymptotes. Example 4: Notes Since the asymptotes
