LOCUS VARIOUS FORMS OF LINES
Lous Definition: A set of points which satisfy a given condition or conditions is called a Locus
Example: A Locus of points which are equidistant from a fixed point in a plane is called a circle.
This fixed point is called,"The centre of from the circle" and the fixed distance is called," The radius of the Circle.
NOTE: A Locus of points usually results in a curve or surface
Six Important Locus Theorems
Theorem I: The points at the fixed distance ‘r’ from the point 'p' is considered to be a circle with ‘r’ as its radius and centre p.
Theorem 2:The Locus at a fixed distance 'd' from the line 'm’ is considered as a pair of parallel lines that are located on either side of 'm’ at a distance "d" from the Line m
Theorem 3: The Locus which is equidistant from the two given points Say A and B, are Considered as perpendicular bisectors of the line segment that joins the two points.
Theorem 4: The Locus which is equidistant from the two parallel lines say m1 and m2 is considered to be a line parallel to both the lines m1 and m2 it should be halfway between them.
Theorem 5: The Locus which is present on the interior of an angle equidistant from the sides of an angle is considered to be the bisector of the angle
Theorem 6: The Locus which is equidistant from the two intersecting lines say m1 and m2 is considered to be a pair of Lines that bisects the angle produced by the two lines m1 and m2
