Please see below.

Explanation:

y = 2tan(4x-20) = (2sin(4x-20))/cos(4x-20)y=2tan(4x20)=2sin(4x20)cos(4x20)

has no horizontal asymptottes. (There is no limit as xrarr+-oox±.),
and has vertical asymptotes where the denominator is 00.

If we are working in degrees

cos(4x-20^@) = 0cos(4x20)=0
4x-20^@=90^@+k180^@4x20=90+k180 for integer kk
4x = 110^@+k180^@4x=110+k180 for integer kk
x = 22.5^@+k45^@x=22.5+k45 for integer kk

The graph has vertical asymptotes at x = 22.5^@+k45^@x=22.5+k45 for integer kk

If we are working in radians or in real numbers

cos(4x-20) = 0cos(4x20)=0
4x-20=pi^@+k2pi^@4x20=π+k2π for integer kk
4x =(pi+20)+k2pi4x=(π+20)+k2π for integer kk
x = pi/4+5++kpi/4x=π4+5++kπ4 for integer kk

The graph has vertical asymptotes at x = pi/4+5++kpi/4x=π4+5++kπ4 for integer kk
