Points equidistant from AB lie on its perpendicular bisector. Points 5 inches from A lie on the circle with centre A and radius = 5 inches. You will have two points where the perp bisector and circle intersect.

What is the point known as zero on the number line?
this is also called the origin on that line. it is the point equidistant between -1 and +1.
The distance between points P and Q is 8 units How many points are equidistant from P and Q and also 3 units from P?
zero Half the distance between them would be 4 units; so 3 units from P would not be close enough to Q to be equidistant.
The point that is equidistant from all vertices of the regular polygon?
The centroid or centre of gravity. It will also be the point where the bisectors of the angles, and the perpendicular bisectors of the sides meet.
How big is 7.87401575 inches?
7.87401575 inches can be converted to 20.000000005 centimeters. It can also be converted into 0.65616797916667 feet. 7.87401575 inches is also converted into 200.00000005 millimeters.
The directrix and focus are different distances from a given point on the parabola. A. True B. False?
FALSE. One of the definitions of a parabola, and also a means of drawing it, is that EVERY point on it is equidistant from the focus and the directrix.
What is the locus of points equidistant from two parallel lines that are 6 inches apart?
It is a line that is also parallel to them and exactly halfway between them.
What is the meaning of the word locus?
The word "locus" refers to a specific place or position. It can also be used to describe a gene's physical location on a chromosome.
Points A and B are 6 units apart How many points are equidistant fomr A and B and 2 units from A?
None. If a point is 2 units from 'A' and equidistant from 'A' and 'B', then it also has to be2 units from 'B'.But the shortest distance between 'A' and 'B' is 6 units, and the point on that line that's equidistantfrom both of them is the point in the middle, which is 3 units from each.So a point equidistant from 'A' and 'B' must be 3 or more units from each one. 2 units won't do it.
A set of points that are the same distance from a given point?
equidistant, the circumference of a circle is formed by equidistant points from the center of the circle. It could also be the surface of a sphere if you are not limited to two dimensions.
Although the locus of points idea can be used to define a straight line and circle more complex shapes such as parabolas must be defined a different way. True or False?
Certainly false for parabolae; a parabola is the locus of points in a plane which are equidistant from a point (the focus) and a line (the directrix) in that plane. It's also false for an ellipse, which is the locus of points in a plane where the sum of the distances from two other points in that plane (the foci) is constant. AND false for a hyperbola, which is the locus of points in a plane where the absolute value of the DIFFERENCE in the distance from two points in that plane (also the foci) is constant. Alternatively, a hyperbola is the locus of points in a plane where the ratio of the distance to one of the foci and to a line (the directrix) is constant (which is larger than 1; if it's exactly equal to 1, you get a parabola instead).All of these are only slightly more complicated than circles, and in fact they, alone with circles, are called "conic sections" because they all are formed by the intersection of a plane with a right circular conical surface.
What is the locus of points equidistant from the four vertices of a rectangle?
In two dimensions, I believe that it is the centroid of the rectange. In 3D, it would be an infinite line drawn normal to the surface of the rectangle, and passing through its centroid. I suppose that a circle of infinite radius also counts as an answer, because each point is equally (infinitely) far from each vertice, but I do not think that is what the quesion is asking.
Has length but no width and no thickness?
An ideal line also known as the locus of an ideal point
The dif between grasshopers and locus?
grasshopper has wings and locusts don't. also losuts are uglier.
Are sex linked or autosomal similare?
Not really. Autosomal refers to the fact that a characteristic is controlled at a single genetic locus. Sex linked refers to a gene locus on the sex chromosomes For example. Hemophilia is a sex linked characteristic because the genetic locus for the disease is located on the X sex chromosome. It is also autosomal recessive.
Is a set of points equidistant from a given point called the center?
Yes. This is also seen in conic sections.
How far apart does carrots and broccoli need to be planted?
'Bout two inches, if you take my meaning, but I am not that experienced, and I wouldn't rely on that, and there are also PLENTY of websites out there.... if anyone has a positive answer, PLEASE LET ME KNOW HERE!
A recessive trait can only be expressed when?
... an individual is homozygous recessive for that allele or the locus is autosomal (or sex-linked) recessive. It can also happen if there is a mutation or loss of the other copy and the only available copy for the locus is the recessive copy.
