Invariants method
Given equation of the surface of 2-order:
$$6 x_{1}^{2} - 3 x_{2}^{2} - 3 x_{3}^{2} = 0$$
This equation looks like:
$$a_{11} x_{3}^{2} + 2 a_{12} x_{2} x_{3} + 2 a_{13} x_{1} x_{3} + a_{22} x_{2}^{2} + 2 a_{23} x_{1} x_{2} + a_{33} x_{1}^{2} + 2 a_{14} x_{3} + 2 a_{24} x_{2} + 2 a_{34} x_{1} + a_{44} = 0$$
where
$$a_{11} = -3$$
$$a_{12} = 0$$
$$a_{13} = 0$$
$$a_{14} = 0$$
$$a_{22} = -3$$
$$a_{23} = 0$$
$$a_{24} = 0$$
$$a_{33} = 6$$
$$a_{34} = 0$$
$$a_{44} = 0$$
The invariants of the equation when converting coordinates are determinants:

$$I_{1} = 0$$
$$I_{2} = -27$$
$$I_{3} = 54$$
$$I_{4} = 0$$
$$I{\left(\lambda \right)} = - \lambda^{3} + 27 \lambda + 54$$
$$K_{2} = 0$$
$$K_{3} = 0$$
Because
I3 != 0

then by type of surface:
you need to
Make the characteristic equation for the surface:
$$- I_{1} \lambda^{2} + \lambda^{3} + I_{2} \lambda - I_{3} = 0$$
or
$$\lambda^{3} - 27 \lambda - 54 = 0$$
Solve this equation
$$\lambda_{1} = 6$$
$$\lambda_{2} = -3$$
$$\lambda_{3} = -3$$
then the canonical form of the equation will be
$$\left(\tilde x1^{2} \lambda_{3} + \left(\tilde x2^{2} \lambda_{2} + \tilde x3^{2} \lambda_{1}\right)\right) + \frac{I_{4}}{I_{3}} = 0$$
$$- 3 \tilde x1^{2} - 3 \tilde x2^{2} + 6 \tilde x3^{2} = 0$$
$$- \frac{\tilde x3^{2}}{\left(\frac{\sqrt{6}}{6}\right)^{2}} + \left(\frac{\tilde x1^{2}}{\left(\frac{\sqrt{3}}{3}\right)^{2}} + \frac{\tilde x2^{2}}{\left(\frac{\sqrt{3}}{3}\right)^{2}}\right) = 0$$
this equation is fora type cone
- reduced to canonical form
