<font face="Times New Roman" size="+2">


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.
