Your original question is incomplete.
However, for x^2-2xy+y^2+4x-8y+20=0
2x - 2x(dy/dx) - 2y + 2y(dy/dx) + 4 - 8dy/dx = 0
dy/dx(-2x + 2y - 8) = -2x + 2y - 4
dy/dx = (-2x + 2y - 8)/(-2x + 2y - 4)
= (x - y + 4)/(x - y + 2)
btw, this is what your graph looks like

I already showed you how to find where the parabola has vertical and horizontal tangents. What did you not like about my solution?
