Guida verificata passo dopo passo1
Start with the given equation: \(4x^{2} - 9y^{2} - 16x + 54y - 101 = 0\).
Group the \(x\) terms and \(y\) terms together: \(4x^{2} - 16x - 9y^{2} + 54y = 101\).
Factor out the coefficients of the squared terms from each group: \(4(x^{2} - 4x) - 9(y^{2} - 6y) = 101\).
Complete the square for each group inside the parentheses:
- For \(x^{2} - 4x\), take half of \(-4\) which is \(-2\), square it to get \(4\), so add and subtract \(4\) inside the parentheses.
- For \(y^{2} - 6y\), take half of \(-6\) which is \(-3\), square it to get \(9\), so add and subtract \(9\) inside the parentheses.
Rewrite the equation including the completed squares and adjust the right side accordingly:
\(4(x^{2} - 4x + 4 - 4) - 9(y^{2} - 6y + 9 - 9) = 101\).
Then express the perfect square trinomials as squares:
\(4((x - 2)^{2} - 4) - 9((y - 3)^{2} - 9) = 101\).
Finally, distribute and move constants to the right side to isolate the squared terms.

Ecco i concetti essenziali che devi comprendere per rispondere correttamente alla domanda.
Completing the Square
Completing the square is a method used to rewrite quadratic expressions in the form (x - h)² or (y - k)² by adding and subtracting terms. This technique helps convert the given equation into standard form, making it easier to identify the center and other properties of conic sections like hyperbolas.

Standard Form of a Hyperbola
The standard form of a hyperbola equation is either (x - h)²/a² - (y - k)²/b² = 1 or (y - k)²/a² - (x - h)²/b² = 1, where (h, k) is the center. Converting to this form reveals key features such as the orientation, vertices, and helps in graphing the hyperbola accurately.

Foci and Asymptotes of a Hyperbola
The foci are two fixed points inside the hyperbola that define its shape, located using the relationship c² = a² + b². Asymptotes are lines that the hyperbola approaches but never touches, given by equations derived from the center and slopes ±b/a or ±a/b, guiding the graph's behavior at infinity.
