4x%5E2%2B4y%5E2-4x%2B8y=11
4x%5E2-4x%2B1%2B4y%5E2%2B8y%2B4=11%2B1%2B4
4%28x%5E2-x%2B1%2F4%29%2B4%28y%5E2%2B2y%2B1%29=16
4%28x-1%2F2%29%5E2%2B4%28y%2B1%29%5E2=16
%28x-1%2F2%29%5E2%2B%28y%2B1%29%5E2=4
%28x-1%2F2%29%5E2%2B%28y%2B1%29%5E2=2%5E2
That is the equation of the circle centered at (1/2,-1) with radius 2.
