Find the vertex of the quadratic function and write the function in standard form. If the leading coefficient is positive, the vertex is a minimum. If the leading coefficient is negative, the vertex is a maximum. An asymptote of a graph is a line to which the graph becomes arbitrarily close as x increases or decreases without bound.
