Vertical Asymptote
A line that a graph approaches but never touches or crosses, representing where the function moves towards infinity or negative infinity.
Logarithm
The power to which a base, such as 10 or e, must be raised to produce a given number; it's the inverse operation to exponentiation.

Final Answer :
B
Explanation :
The vertical asymptote of a logarithmic function in the form of logb(x−h)\log _ { b } ( x - h )logb(x−h) is x=h. Therefore, the vertical asymptote of g(x)=log10(x−1)g(x)=\log_{10}(x-1)g(x)=log10(x−1) is x=1.
