\begin{displaymath}
A=\left(
\begin{array}{ccc}
0 & 1 & 0 \\
0 & 0 & 1 \\
...
... & 0 & 0 & 0 & 1\\
-1 & 0 & 0 & -2 & 0 & 0
\end{array}\right)
\end{displaymath}





2. Classify the following second order curves, write the corresponding changes of coordinates and sketch the curves in the coordinate system $(x,y).$

a.

\begin{displaymath}

b.

\begin{displaymath}
5x^2 + 4 xy + 5y^2 + x + y =0
