Given line equation of 2-order:
$$2 x^{2} + 4 \sqrt{2} x y - 5 y^{2} = 0$$
This equation looks like:
$$a_{11} x^{2} + 2 a_{12} x y + 2 a_{13} x + a_{22} y^{2} + 2 a_{23} y + a_{33} = 0$$
where
$$a_{11} = 2$$
$$a_{12} = 2 \sqrt{2}$$
$$a_{13} = 0$$
$$a_{22} = -5$$
$$a_{23} = 0$$
$$a_{33} = 0$$
To calculate the determinant
$$\Delta = \left|\begin{matrix}a_{11} & a_{12}\\a_{12} & a_{22}\end{matrix}\right|$$
or, substitute
$$\Delta = \left|\begin{matrix}2 & 2 \sqrt{2}\\2 \sqrt{2} & -5\end{matrix}\right|$$
$$\Delta = -18$$
Because
$$\Delta$$
is not equal to 0, then
find the center of the canonical coordinate system. To do it, solve the system of equations
$$a_{11} x_{0} + a_{12} y_{0} + a_{13} = 0$$
$$a_{12} x_{0} + a_{22} y_{0} + a_{23} = 0$$
substitute coefficients
$$2 x_{0} + 2 \sqrt{2} y_{0} = 0$$
$$2 \sqrt{2} x_{0} - 5 y_{0} = 0$$
then
$$x_{0} = 0$$
$$y_{0} = 0$$
Thus, we have the equation in the coordinate system O'x'y'
$$a'_{33} + a_{11} x'^{2} + 2 a_{12} x' y' + a_{22} y'^{2} = 0$$
where
$$a'_{33} = a_{13} x_{0} + a_{23} y_{0} + a_{33}$$
or
$$a'_{33} = 0$$
$$a'_{33} = 0$$
then equation turns into
$$2 x'^{2} + 4 \sqrt{2} x' y' - 5 y'^{2} = 0$$
Rotate the resulting coordinate system by an angle φ
$$x' = \tilde x \cos{\left(\phi \right)} - \tilde y \sin{\left(\phi \right)}$$
$$y' = \tilde x \sin{\left(\phi \right)} + \tilde y \cos{\left(\phi \right)}$$
φ - determined from the formula
$$\cot{\left(2 \phi \right)} = \frac{a_{11} - a_{22}}{2 a_{12}}$$
substitute coefficients
$$\cot{\left(2 \phi \right)} = \frac{7 \sqrt{2}}{8}$$
then
$$\phi = \frac{\operatorname{acot}{\left(\frac{7 \sqrt{2}}{8} \right)}}{2}$$
$$\sin{\left(2 \phi \right)} = \frac{4 \sqrt{2}}{9}$$
$$\cos{\left(2 \phi \right)} = \frac{7}{9}$$
$$\cos{\left(\phi \right)} = \sqrt{\frac{\cos{\left(2 \phi \right)}}{2} + \frac{1}{2}}$$
$$\sin{\left(\phi \right)} = \sqrt{1 - \cos^{2}{\left(\phi \right)}}$$
$$\cos{\left(\phi \right)} = \frac{2 \sqrt{2}}{3}$$
$$\sin{\left(\phi \right)} = \frac{1}{3}$$
substitute coefficients
$$x' = \frac{2 \sqrt{2} \tilde x}{3} - \frac{\tilde y}{3}$$
$$y' = \frac{\tilde x}{3} + \frac{2 \sqrt{2} \tilde y}{3}$$
then the equation turns from
$$2 x'^{2} + 4 \sqrt{2} x' y' - 5 y'^{2} = 0$$
to
$$- 5 \left(\frac{\tilde x}{3} + \frac{2 \sqrt{2} \tilde y}{3}\right)^{2} + 4 \sqrt{2} \left(\frac{\tilde x}{3} + \frac{2 \sqrt{2} \tilde y}{3}\right) \left(\frac{2 \sqrt{2} \tilde x}{3} - \frac{\tilde y}{3}\right) + 2 \left(\frac{2 \sqrt{2} \tilde x}{3} - \frac{\tilde y}{3}\right)^{2} = 0$$
simplify
$$3 \tilde x^{2} - 6 \tilde y^{2} = 0$$
Given equation is degenerate hyperbole
$$\frac{\tilde x^{2}}{\left(\frac{\sqrt{3}}{3}\right)^{2}} - \frac{\tilde y^{2}}{\left(\frac{\sqrt{6}}{6}\right)^{2}} = 0$$
