Question
## Graphing Hyperbolas in Standard Form

### Problem Statement
Graph the hyperbola by writing the equation in standard form. Label the center, vertices, and sketch the asymptotes.

Given equation:
\[ x^2 - 4y^2 - 12x - 16y + 16 = 0 \]

### Instructions:
1. **Rewrite the Equation in Standard Form:**
   - Completing the square for \(x\): \(x^2 - 12x\)
     \[
     x^2 - 12x + 36 \quad (\text{adding} \ 36)
     \]
  
   - Completing the square for \(y\): \(-4(y^2 + 4y)\)
     \[
     -4(y^2 + 4y + 4) = -4(y + 2)^2 \quad (\text{adding} \ 16 \ \text{but since it's multiplied by -4, we actually subtract} 64)
     \]

   - Rewrite the equation:
     \[
     (x - 6)^2 - 4(y + 2)^2 = 64 \ (\text{transferring added/subtracted constants appropriately})
     \]
   - Divide by 64 to get it in standard form:
     \[
     \frac{(x - 6)^2}{64} - \frac{(y + 2)^2}{16} = 1
     \]
  
2. **Identifying Key Components:**
   - Center: \((6, -2)\)
   - Transverse axis along \(x\):
     - Vertices: \((6 + 8, -2) \ \text{and} \ (6 - 8, -2)\) or \((14, -2) \ \text{and} \ (-2, -2)\)
   - Asymptotes:
     \[
     y + 2 = \pm \frac{4}{8}(x - 6) \quad (\text{or more simplified as} \ y + 2 = \pm \frac{1}{2}(x - 6))
     \]

### Graph Explanation:

- A grid with axes labeled from -10 to 10 both on x and y axes.
- The hyperbola’s center \((6, -2)\) will be marked.
- Vertices
