This week we will be learning about locus (the set of all points that meets a specified condition) – not to be confused with locusts (grasshopper like insects).
Think of locus as a “bunch” of points that all do the same thing. In Latin, the word locus means place. The plural of locus is loci. We will sketch the points so that they are “equidistant” – at equal distances.
