Here is the question I think I've almost got the answer. Describe and create an equation for each locus.
a.) THe points are equidistant from points A(1,5) and B(-2,6)
I made another random point C(x,y)
AC=BC
I wrote the distance formula for both AC and BC and set them equal to each other but I am not sure how to simplify now
square root[(x+2)^2 +(y-6)^2] = square root[(x-1)^2+(y-5)^2]
I square both sides to get rid of the square root but after that i don't know what to do I got a final answer of 6x-2y+13=0 please tell me is this correct?
