use differentation 4x^2+y^2-8x+4y+4=0 vertical and horizontal tangent

Okay. To find the vertical tangent, treat y as a constant and take the derivative of the equation with respect to x. You will get: 8x -8 = 0 x = 1. This is saying that you have a a vertical tangent (which simply means a line parallel to the y-axis ) at x=1. Similarly, To find the horizontal tangent, treat x as a constant and take the derivative of the equation with respect to y: 2y+4=0 y = -2
