Answer


\operatorname{\lim}_(x\to\pi^(-))f(x)=\infty

Vertical asymptote: x = π.


\lim_(x\to(2\pi)^-)f(x)=-\infty

Vertical asymptote: x = 2π.

Step-by-step explanation

Given the graph of the function


f(x)=csc(x)

we can find the limit of the function when x approaches π from the left:

Thus:


\lim_(x\to\pi^-)f(x)=\infty

indicating that it has a vertical asymptote at x = π.

Then, we can also find the limit of the function when x approaches 2π from the left:


\operatorname{\lim}_(x\to(2\pi)^(-))f(x)=-\infty

indicating that it has a vertical asymptote at x = 2π.
