Given line equation of 2-order: 9x2−81y2−729=0 This equation looks like: a11x2+2a12xy+2a13x+a22y2+2a23y+a33=0 where a11=9 a12=0 a13=0 a22=−81 a23=0 a33=−729 To calculate the determinant Δ=a11a12a12a22 or, substitute Δ=900−81 Δ=−729 Because Δ is not equal to 0, then find the center of the canonical coordinate system. To do it, solve the system of equations a11x0+a12y0+a13=0 a12x0+a22y0+a23=0 substitute coefficients 9x0=0 −81y0=0 then x0=0 y0=0 Thus, we have the equation in the coordinate system O'x'y' a33′+a11x′2+2a12x′y′+a22y′2=0 where a33′=a13x0+a23y0+a33 or a33′=−729 a33′=−729 then equation turns into 9x′2−81y′2−729=0 Given equation is hyperbole 81x~2−9y~2=1 - reduced to canonical form The center of canonical coordinate system at point O

Given line equation of 2-order: 9x2−81y2−729=0 This equation looks like: a11x2+2a12xy+2a13x+a22y2+2a23y+a33=0 where a11=9 a12=0 a13=0 a22=−81 a23=0 a33=−729 The invariants of the equation when converting coordinates are determinants: I1=a11+a22
I1=−72 I2=−729 I3=531441 I(λ)=λ2+72λ−729 K2=52488 Because I2<0∧I3=0 then by line type: this equation is of type : hyperbola Make the characteristic equation for the line: −I1λ+I2+λ2=0 or λ2+72λ−729=0 λ1=9 λ2=−81 then the canonical form of the equation will be x~2λ1+y~2λ2+I2I3=0 or 9x~2−81y~2−729=0 81x~2−9y~2=1 - reduced to canonical form
