How would I find the second-degree Taylor series for $$x^2+y^2=4$$ at $$[1, -\sqrt[]{3}]$$?

Hello and welcome to MHB! :D

Can you tell us what you've tried so we know where you are stuck or what you may be doing wrong? We can offer better help that way.

The second degree Taylor polynomial for a function $\displaystyle \begin{align*} f(x) \end{align*}$ centred at the point is $\displaystyle \begin{align*} (h, k) \end{align*}$ is $\displaystyle \begin{align*} f(x) = f(h) + f'(h) \, \left( x - h \right) + \frac{f''(h)}{2} \, \left( x - h \right) ^2 \end{align*}$.

Can you evaluate $\displaystyle \begin{align*} f(1), f'(1), f''(1) \end{align*}$?
