Hey frnds......

Can u please explain me what is locus.........try to explain that in common way, not in bookish way....

Say some conditions are given, and u have a point (x₁,y₁) at some point satisfying those conditions.  U then find that there are few more (or say, many) points on the plane that also satisfy the given conditions, that is u find all points (x_i,y_i), where i{1,2,3,4,5,6....k} satisfying the conditions. Having thus plotted all such points, u join them. Obviously u get a figure, that figure is termed as path of the point under the given conditions and thus that 'path' is its locus.

RATE ME IF U CAN UNDERSTAND!

In mathematics, traditionally the path traced out by a moving point, but now defined as the set of all points on a curve satisfying given conditions. The locus of points a fixed distance from a fixed point is a circle. The locus of a point equidistant from two fixed points is a straight line that perpendicularly bisects the line joining them. The locus of points a fixed distance from a line is two parallel lines running either side.
