Sketch each of the following parameterized curves.(a) g(t) =[cos(t2), sin(t2)],0≤t≤π ;(b) g(t) =[cosh(t), sinh(t)],−2≤t≤2 ;(c) g(t) =[2−3t, 5t+ 4],0≤t≤1
In a very interesting case, it is sometimes possible for a graph to have a horizontal asymptote, but to have a location where the graph crosses that "border." For example: look at this

Desmos graph for the function
f ( x ) = 2 x 3 x 2 + 1
. Note that it has a horizontal asymptote at
y = 0
, but also notice that the graph does cross that line, right at the origin.
Do you think that it is possible for a graph to cross a vertical asymptote? Why or why not?
