Topics in Locus
Basic Concept of Locus
- Locus is the path traced by a moving point under given conditions
- Every point satisfying the given conditions lies on the locus
- Every point on the locus satisfies the given conditions
Theorem 1: Locus of Point Equidistant from Two Fixed Points
- The locus is the perpendicular bisector of the line segment joining the two points
- Every point on this perpendicular bisector is equidistant from the two fixed points
- The converse is also true - if a point is equidistant from two points, it lies on their perpendicular bisector
Theorem 2: Locus of Point Equidistant from Two Intersecting Lines
- The locus consists of pair of lines bisecting the angles between the given lines
- There are four angles formed by two intersecting lines
- The angle bisectors are perpendicular to each other
Standard Locus Cases
- Circle: Locus of points at fixed distance from fixed point
- Parallel line: Locus of points equidistant from two parallel lines
