Put the equation in standard form Find the center the lines
Put the equation in standard form. Find the center, the lines which contain the transverse and conjugate axes, the vertices, the foci and the equations of the asymptotes. 4x^2 - 16x - 3y^2 - 6y + 1 = 0
Solution
4x2-16x -3y2-6y+1=0
4(x2-4x +4 -4) -3(y2+2y+1-1) +1=0
4(x-2)2-3(y+1)2-12=0
(x-2)2/3 - (y+1)2/4 =1
centre is (2,-1)
vertices (h+-a,k)
k=-1
a=sqrt3
Vertices=(2+-sqrt3 ,-1)
c=sqrt(a2+b2) = sqrt7
focii = (h+-c , k) = (2+- sqrt 7 , -1)
Equation of asymptote
y=+-(b/a)(x-h) + k
y=+-(2/sqrt3))(x-2) -1
