Definition
In mathematics, a line that a curve approaches but never actually touches, getting infinitely close but never meeting.
Etymology
From Greek 'asymptotos' meaning 'not falling together', from 'a-' (not) plus 'sym-' (together) plus 'ptota' (falling), a 17th-century mathematical term.
Kelly Says
Asymptotes are mind-bending in the best way—they represent something approaching a limit forever without ever reaching it, which shows how infinities work in math.
