That's what an isometric drawing is: the third dimension is shown at a 30 degree angle to the horizontal.
The number 30 isn't magic - any other number in that 'ballpark' would work - but it's an easy number ( a third of a right angle, and it's clearly different from 60 degrees, which is why 45 degrees wouldn't be great), and the resulting drawing makes the 3-D object easy to visualize.

What is the horizontal asymptote of f x equals x squared minus 9 divided by x squared minus 4?
y = 1. When the degree of your numerator is the same with the degree of your denominator, then y = the ratio of the leading coefficients of the numerator and denominator is the horizontal asymptote.
