x^2-4x+4y^2-16y-4=0

x^{2} - 4 x + 4 y^{2} - 16 y - 4 = 0

(h, k) = (2, 2), a = 26, b = 6

Solution steps

x^{2} - 4 x + 4 y^{2} - 16 y - 4 = 0

Rewrite

x^{2} - 4 x + 4 y^{2} - 16 y - 4 = 0

in the form of the standard ellipse equation

\frac{( x - 2 ) ^{2}}{( 2 6 ) ^{2}} + \frac{( y - 2 ) ^{2}}{( 6 ) ^{2}} = 1

Therefore ellipse properties are:

(h, k) = (2, 2), a = 26, b = 6

a > b

therefore

a

is semi-major axis and

b

is semi-minor axis

Ellipse with center (h, k) = (2, 2), a = 26, b = 6
