As always when completing the square, we focus on the quadratic and linear terms \displaystyle 2x-x^{2} , which we also can write as \displaystyle -\left( x^{2}-2x \right) . If we neglect the minus sign, we can complete square of the expression \displaystyle 2x-x^{2} by using the formula


\displaystyle x^{2}-ax=\left( x-\frac{a}{2} \right)^{2}-\left( \frac{a}{2} \right)^{2}


and we obtain


\displaystyle x^{2}-2x=\left( x-\frac{2}{2} \right)^{2}-\left( \frac{2}{2} \right)^{2}=\left( x-1 \right)^{2}-1


This means that


\displaystyle \begin{align} & 5+2x-x^{2}=5-\left( x^{2}-2x \right)=5-\left( \left( x-1 \right)^{2}-1 \right) \\ & \\ & =5-\left( x-1 \right)^{2}+1=6-\left( x-1 \right)^{2} \\ & \\ \end{align}


A quick check shows that we have completed the square correctly.:


\displaystyle \begin{align} & 6-\left( x-1 \right)^{2}=6-\left( x^{2}-2x+1 \right)=6-x^{2}+2x-1 \\ & \\ & =5+2x-x^{2} \\ & \\ \end{align}
