2 x 2 + x y − y 2 − 6 = 0. 2x^2 + xy - y^2 - 6 = 0. 2 x 2 + x y − y 2 − 6 = 0.
Solution
The general equation of the second degree in two variables is
A x 2 + 2 B x y + C y 2 + 2 D x + 2 E y + F = 0 A = 2 ; 2 B = 1 ; C = − 1 ; 2 D = 0 ; 2 E = 0 ; F = − 6. \begin{array}{l}
Ax^2 + 2Bxy + Cy^2 + 2Dx + 2Ey + F = 0 \\
A = 2; 2B = 1; C = -1; 2D = 0; 2E = 0; F = -6.
\end{array} A x 2 + 2 B x y + C y 2 + 2 D x + 2 E y + F = 0 A = 2 ; 2 B = 1 ; C = − 1 ; 2 D = 0 ; 2 E = 0 ; F = − 6.
a) Simplification by rotation of coordinate system.
With a suitable rotation of the coordinate system the term in x y xy x y can be eliminated from any second degree equation. Under a rotation of the coordinate system about its origin by an angle of θ \theta θ degrees
tan 2 θ = 2 B A − C = 1 2 − ( − 1 ) = 1 3 . \tan 2\theta = \frac{2B}{A - C} = \frac{1}{2 - (-1)} = \frac{1}{3}. tan 2 θ = A − C 2 B = 2 − ( − 1 ) 1 = 3 1 . x = x ′ cos θ − y ′ sin θ ; y = x ′ sin θ + y ′ cos θ ; \begin{array}{l}
x = x' \cos \theta - y' \sin \theta; \\
y = x' \sin \theta + y' \cos \theta;
\end{array} x = x ′ cos θ − y ′ sin θ ; y = x ′ sin θ + y ′ cos θ ; cos 2 θ = 1 1 + ( tan 2 θ ) 2 = 3 10 ; sin θ = 1 − cos 2 θ 2 = 10 − 3 2 10 ; cos θ = 1 + cos 2 θ 2 = 10 + 3 2 10 . x = x ′ 10 + 3 2 10 − y ′ 10 − 3 2 10 ; y = x ′ 10 − 3 2 10 + y ′ 10 + 3 2 10 ; \begin{array}{l}
\cos 2\theta = \frac{1}{\sqrt{1 + (\tan 2\theta)^2}} = \frac{3}{\sqrt{10}}; \\
\sin \theta = \sqrt{\frac{1 - \cos 2\theta}{2}} = \sqrt{\frac{\sqrt{10} - 3}{2\sqrt{10}}}; \\

x = x' \sqrt{\frac{\sqrt{10} + 3}{2\sqrt{10}}} - y' \sqrt{\frac{\sqrt{10} - 3}{2\sqrt{10}}}; \\
y = x' \sqrt{\frac{\sqrt{10} - 3}{2\sqrt{10}}} + y' \sqrt{\frac{\sqrt{10} + 3}{2\sqrt{10}}};
\end{array} cos 2 θ = 1 + ( t a n 2 θ ) 2 1 = 10 3 ; sin θ = 2 1 − c o s 2 θ = 2 10 10 − 3 ; cos θ = 2 1 + c o s 2 θ = 2 10 10 + 3 . x = x ′ 2 10 10 + 3 − y ′ 2 10 10 − 3 ; y = x ′ 2 10 10 − 3 + y ′ 2 10 10 + 3 ;
