Perpendicular bisector!! Equation to a Locus
The equation to the locus of a point is that relation which is satisfied by the coordinates of every point on the locus of that point
Important : A Locus is NOT an equation. But it is associated with an equation Equation to a Locus
Algorithm to find the equation to a locus : Step I : Assume the coordinates of the point whose locus is to be found to be (h,k)
Step II : Write the given conditions in mathematical form using h, k Step III : Eliminate the variables, if any Step IV : Replace h by x and k by y in Step III. The equation thus obtained is the required equation to locus Illustrative Example Find the equation to the locus of the point equidistant from A(1, 3) and B(-2, 1) Solution :

Find the locus of its midpoint. Solution : Let the point be P(h,k) Let the ⊥ lines be the axes Let the rod meet the axes at B(0,b) A(a,0) and B(0,b)
h = a/2, k = b/2 P(h,k) Also, a2+b2 = l2 4h2+4k2 = l2 O A(a,0) equation of locus of (h,k) is 4x2+4y2 = l2 Shift of Origin

Solution : Let the points have vertices

new coordinates : A(x1-h, y1-k), B(x2-h, y2-k)
