Given line equation of 2-order:
$$x y - 2400 = 0$$
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
$$a_{11} = 0$$
$$a_{12} = \frac{1}{2}$$
$$a_{13} = 0$$
$$a_{22} = 0$$
$$a_{23} = 0$$
$$a_{33} = -2400$$
To calculate the determinant
$$\Delta = \left|\begin{matrix}a_{11} & a_{12}\\a_{12} & a_{22}\end{matrix}\right|$$
or, substitute
$$\Delta = \left|\begin{matrix}0 & \frac{1}{2}\\\frac{1}{2} & 0\end{matrix}\right|$$
$$\Delta = - \frac{1}{4}$$
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
$$\frac{y_{0}}{2} = 0$$
$$\frac{x_{0}}{2} = 0$$
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
$$a'_{33} = -2400$$
$$a'_{33} = -2400$$
then equation turns into
$$x' y' - 2400 = 0$$
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
$$\cot{\left(2 \phi \right)} = 0$$
then
$$\phi = \frac{\pi}{4}$$
$$\sin{\left(2 \phi \right)} = 1$$
$$\cos{\left(2 \phi \right)} = 0$$
$$\cos{\left(\phi \right)} = \sqrt{\frac{\cos{\left(2 \phi \right)}}{2} + \frac{1}{2}}$$
$$\sin{\left(\phi \right)} = \sqrt{1 - \cos^{2}{\left(\phi \right)}}$$
$$\cos{\left(\phi \right)} = \frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}$$
$$\sin{\left(\phi \right)} = \frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}$$
substitute coefficients
$$x' = \frac{\sqrt{2} \tilde x}{2} - \frac{\sqrt{2} \tilde y}{2}$$
$$y' = \frac{\sqrt{2} \tilde x}{2} + \frac{\sqrt{2} \tilde y}{2}$$
then the equation turns from
$$x' y' - 2400 = 0$$
to
$$\left(\frac{\sqrt{2} \tilde x}{2} - \frac{\sqrt{2} \tilde y}{2}\right) \left(\frac{\sqrt{2} \tilde x}{2} + \frac{\sqrt{2} \tilde y}{2}\right) - 2400 = 0$$
simplify
$$\frac{\tilde x^{2}}{2} - \frac{\tilde y^{2}}{2} - 2400 = 0$$
$$- \frac{\tilde x^{2}}{2} + \frac{\tilde y^{2}}{2} + 2400 = 0$$
Given equation is hyperbole
$$\frac{\tilde x^{2}}{4800} - \frac{\tilde y^{2}}{4800} = 1$$
