STEPS FOR COMPLETING THE SQUARE
y+18x−81=x
2
Subtract x
2
from both sides.
y+18x−81−x
2
=0
Subtract y from both sides. Anything subtracted from zero gives its negation.
18x−81−x
2
=−y
Add 81 to both sides.
18x−x
2
=−y+81
Quadratic equations such as this one can be solved by completing the square. In order to complete the square, the equation must first be in the form x
2
+bx=c.
−x
2
+18x=81−y
Divide both sides by −1.

81−y
Dividing by −1 undoes the multiplication by −1.

81−y
Divide −y+81 by −1.

2
−18x=y−81
Divide −18, the coefficient of the x term, by 2 to get −9. Then add the square of −9 to both sides of the equation. This step makes the left hand side of the equation a perfect square.

Square −9.

−18x+81=y−81+81
Add y−81 to 81.

−18x+81=y
Factor x

+bx+c is a perfect square, it can always be factored as (x+
