Bring to Canonical Form

The teacher will be very surprised to see your correct solution 😉

    What can a canonical calculator do?

    • For a given equation it finds:
      • Canonical form of the equation (for lines and surfaces of second order)
      • Basis-vector of canonical coordinate system (for 2nd order lines)
      • Center of canonical coordinate system (for 2nd order lines)
    • Detailed Solution in Two Ways:
      • Direct method with transition to a new center of coordinates and rotation around a new center of coordinates (for lines)
      • Method of invariants with calculation of a set of determinants (for lines and surfaces)
    • Plot a graph of the second order line, plot the center of the canonical system and the basis vectors of the canonical system
