The video tutorial explains how to solve a system of equations involving X and Y. It begins by introducing the problem and the given equations. The tutorial then demonstrates how to transform these equations into a homogeneous form. By solving a quadratic equation for M, the video derives possible values for X and Y. Finally, it concludes with the solutions, providing four possible pairs of values for X and Y.

What are the given equations in the problem?

X^2 - 2Y^2 + 5XY = 26 and X^2 - Y^2 - XY = 37

X^2 + 2Y^2 - 5XY = -26 and X^2 + Y^2 + XY = 37

X^2 + Y^2 = 26 and X^2 + 2Y^2 = 37

X^2 + 2Y^2 + 5XY = 26 and X^2 + Y^2 - XY = 37

What is the result of cross-multiplying the homogeneous equations?

37X^2 - 74Y^2 + 185XY = 26X^2 - 26Y^2 + 26XY

37X^2 + 74Y^2 + 185XY = 26X^2 + 26Y^2 + 26XY

37X^2 + 74Y^2 - 185XY = 26X^2 + 26Y^2 + 26XY

37X^2 + 74Y^2 - 185XY = -26X^2 - 26Y^2 - 26XY
