To find the vertical asymptotes of ( f(x) = \tan(\pi x) ), set the denominator of the tangent function, ( \pi x ), equal to zero and solve for ( x ). Since the tangent function is undefined at odd multiples of ( \frac{\pi}{2} ), the vertical asymptotes occur at these values of ( x ). Therefore, the vertical asymptotes of ( f(x) = \tan(\pi x) ) are given by:
[ x = \frac{2n + 1}{2}, \text{ where } n \text{ is an integer.} ]
In other words, the vertical asymptotes occur at ( x = \frac{1}{2}, -\frac{1}{2}, \frac{3}{2}, -\frac{3}{2}, \frac{5}{2}, -\frac{5}{2}, \text{ and so on.} )

When evaluating a one-sided limit, you need to be careful when a quantity is approaching zero since its sign is different depending on which way it is approaching zero from. Let us look at some examples.
