asymptotic asymptoteThe x-axis and y-axis are asymptotes of the hyperbola xy = 3.as·ymp·tote A0490100 (ăs′ĭm-tōt′, -ĭmp-)n. A line whose distance to a given curve tends to zero. An asymptote may or may not intersect its associated curve. [Ultimately from Greek asumptōtos, not intersecting : a-, not; see a-1 + sumptōtos, intersecting (from sumpiptein, sumptō-, to converge : sun-, syn- + piptein, to fall; see pet- in Indo-European roots).] as′ymp·tot′ic (-tŏt′ĭk), as′ymp·tot′i·cal adj.as′ymp·tot′i·cal·ly adv.asymptotic (ˌæsɪmˈtɒtɪk) or asymptoticaladj1.
