$e = 0 - 1 \cdot 4$

Step 1.4.2.1.2

Multiply $- 1$ by $4$ .

$e = 0 - 4$

Step 1.4.2.2

Subtract $4$ from $0$ .

$e = - 4$

Step 1.5

Substitute the values of $a$ , $d$ , and $e$ into the vertex form ${(Y - 2)}^{2} - 4$ .

${(Y - 2)}^{2} - 4$

Step 2

Substitute ${(Y - 2)}^{2} - 4$ for $Y^{2} - 4 Y$ in the equation $x^{2} + Y^{2} + 2 X - 4 Y = 0$ .

$x^{2} + {(Y - 2)}^{2} - 4 = 0$

Step 3

Move $- 4$ to the right side of the equation by adding $4$ to both sides.

$x^{2} + {(Y - 2)}^{2} = 0 + 4$

Step 4

Add $0$ and $4$ .
