I thought the only times you had to show arrows was in spesh where you gotta show the direction of a particle's path lol

Some teachers say you must show that the graph approaches but never reaches the asymptotes and can be somehow emphasized by arrows lol

To show that the graph approaches but never reaches the asymptote you have to 1) make sure the line never touches the asymptote 2) make sure the line never bends away from the asymptote while approching it.

But you should put arrows anyway
