Thank you!
“Yes, Ma’am”
Very good!
Example 1
2 2
x + y + 4 x−2 y−31=0
First, let’s group terms with same variable and
transpose the 31.
(x ¿¿ 2+4 x )+¿ ¿ ) = 31
As you can see we live space after the second
term of x variables and y variables because
we will need to add a new constant to make
that a perfect squared trinomial.

b
completing the square is , and our b is the
2
linear term.

2 2
b 4
= =4
2 2
In our y variables, the b is -2.
() ( )
2 2
b −2
= =1
2 2
So, now we have,
(x ¿¿ 2+4 x + 4)+¿ ¿) = 31
Since we add 4 and 1 on the left side, we
should also add 4 and 1 on the right side to
make the equation balanced.
h= -2, k= 1, r= 6

b −6
= =9
2 2
In our y variables, the b is -2.
() ( )
2 2
b −10
= =25
2 2
So, now we have,
(x ¿¿ 2−6 x +9)+¿ ¿) =
-18+9+25.
h= 3, k= 5, r= 4
