Hi
Classify the conic section, write it's equation in standard form, and graph.
x^2+y^2+4x-6y-3=0
(x+2)^2-4 +(y-3)^2-9-3=0
(x+2)^2 +(y-3)^2 = 16 |Circle with C(-2,3) and r = 4
Note:
Standard Form of an Equation of a Circle is %28x-h%29%5E2+%2B+%28y-k%29%5E2+=+r%5E2
where Pt(h,k) is the center and r is the radius


See below descriptions of various conics

Standard Form of an Equation of a Circle is %28x-h%29%5E2+%2B+%28y-k%29%5E2+=+r%5E2
where Pt(h,k) is the center and r is the radius
Standard Form of an Equation of an Ellipse is %28x-h%29%5E2%2Fa%5E2+%2B+%28y-k%29%5E2%2Fb%5E2+=+1+ where Pt(h,k) is the center. (a positioned to correspond with major axis)
a and b are the respective vertices distances from center and ±sqrt%28a%5E2-b%5E2%29are the foci distances from center: a > b
Standard Form of an Equation of an Hyperbola opening right and left is:
%28x-h%29%5E2%2Fa%5E2+-+%28y-k%29%5E2%2Fb%5E2+=+1 where Pt(h,k) is a center with vertices 'a' units right and left of center.
Standard Form of an Equation of an Hyperbola opening up and down is:
%28y-k%29%5E2%2Fb%5E2+-+%28x-h%29%5E2%2Fa%5E2+=+1 where Pt(h,k) is a center with vertices 'b' units up and down from center.
the vertex form of a parabola opening up or down, y=a%28x-h%29%5E2+%2Bk where(h,k) is the vertex.
The standard form is %28x+-h%29%5E2+=+4p%28y+-k%29, where the focus is (h,k + p)
the vertex form of a parabola opening right or left, x=a%28y-k%29%5E2+%2Bh where(h,k) is the vertex.
The standard form is %28y+-k%29%5E2+=+4p%28x+-h%29, where the focus is (h +p,k )
