Homework Statement
describe the conic section.
a) 2X² - Y² - 4xy - 4X - 8Y + 14 = 0
convert to standard form of a conic section and identify its graph.
b) X² + Y² - 2XY + 16X + 16Y = 0
Homework Equations
a) 2X² - Y² - 4xy = 4X + 8Y - 14
b) X² + Y² - 2XY = -16X - 16Y
aX² + bY² + cZ² + 2dXY + 2eXZ + 2fYZ = 0
|a d e|
|d b f| = symetric matrix A
|e f c|
The Attempt at a Solution
im actually trying to get the symetric matrix from the quadratic forms but i only know how to use the formula i have in my relevant equations. and looking at my textbook it always assume that if it has kX+kY+kZ in the formula that they are zero.
