Answer

$(1,1)(-1,-1)$

Work Step by Step

$x^{2}+4y^{2}=5$ Equation $(1)$ $y=x$ Equation $(2)$ Substitute $y=x$ in Equation $(1)$ $x^{2}+4y^{2}=5$ $x^{2}+4x^{2}=5$ $5x^{2}=5$ $x^{2}=1$ $x=±1$ $x=1$ or $x=-1$ Substitute $x$ values in Equation $(2)$ to get corresponding $y$ values. Let $x=1$ $y=x$ $y=1$ Let $x=-1$ $y=x$ $y=-1$ Both $(1,1)(-1,-1)$ satisfy the given equations. Solutions are $(1,1)(-1,-1)$
