Step 1: Move the constant term to the RHS.

Step 2: Divide the coefficient on the first degree x term by 2, square the result, add that result to both sides of the equation.

Step 3: Divide the coefficient on the first degree y term by 2, square the result, add that result to both sides of the equation.

Step 4: Factor both of the perfect square trinomials in the LHS.

Step 5: Collect like terms in the RHS.
