Tell which type of conic section is represented by the given general from equations. Then, use the process of completing the square to write each of the conic section in its respective working form. -x^2+16y^2-4x-32y-4=0
..
-x^2+16y^2-4x-32y-4=0
multiply by -1
x^2-16y^2+4x+32y+4=0
completing the square
(x^2+4x+4)-16(y^2-2y+1)=-4+4-16
(x-2)^2-16(y-1)^2=-16
multiply by -1
16(y-1)^2-(x+2)^2=16
(y-1)^2-(x+2)^2/16=1 (Standard form of given hyperbola)
This is a hyperbola with center at (-2,1) and with vertical transverse axis.
See graph below for visual evidence of given hyperbola.
..
y=((x+2)^2/16+1)^.5+1
