To find the slant asymptote of the function ( \frac{x^4 + 1}{x^2 + 2} ), we need to perform polynomial long division to divide ( x^4 + 1 ) by ( x^2 + 2 ).
Dividing ( x^4 + 1 ) by ( x^2 + 2 ), we get:
( x^2 - 2x + 4 ) with a remainder of ( -7x + 9 ).
Therefore, the slant asymptote of the function is ( y = x^2 - 2x + 4 ).

To find the slant asymptote of ( \frac{x^4 + 1}{x^2 + 2} ), perform polynomial long division. The quotient will be the equation of the slant asymptote.
( \frac{x^4 + 1}{x^2 + 2} = x^2 - 2 + \frac{5}{x^2 + 2} )
Therefore, the slant asymptote is ( y = x^2 - 2 ).

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.
