    When are limits undefined?

    Limits are undefined in three scenarios.

    1. A vertical asymptote. When the function is a rational function ex. x/x-1. Set the denominator to zero and that is your VA.

    2. A hole. When simplifying a function, if two terms cancel out ex. x(x-1)/x-1. Then the term that is canceled out will be your hole when set to zero.

    3. A jump discontinuity. This basically when your function jumps to a different y values at certain x value.
