(is_finite($float)) is equivalent to (!is_infinite($float) && !is_nan($float)), i.e. a number can only be one of finite, infinite and NaN. You don't need to check both is_infinite() and is_nan() to see if a number is invalid or out of range.
<?php
$finite = 42;
$infinite = log(0);
$nan = acos(2);
var_dump(is_finite($finite), is_infinite($finite), is_nan($finite)); // true, false, false
var_dump(is_finite($infinite), is_infinite($infinite), is_nan($infinite)); // false, true, false
var_dump(is_finite($nan), is_infinite($nan), is_nan($nan)); // false, false, true
?>
is_finite
