Complete the square to identify foci, center, vertices and co vertices for an ellipse

The video tutorial explains the process of completing the square to find the foci, center, vertices, and co-vertices of an equation. It covers creating binomial squares, calculating the necessary C value, factoring trinomials, and solving equations. The tutorial also guides identifying the center and axes, and calculating the positions of vertices, foci, and co-vertices.

Explain how to create a binomial squared from a quadratic equation.
