Angles in Circles
Angles within a circle are feasible to create with the help of different properties of the circle such as radii, tangents, and chords. The radius is the distance from the center of the circle to the circumference of the circle. A tangent is a line made p…
Arcs in Circles
A circular arc is the arc of a circle formed by two distinct points. It is a section or segment of the circumference of a circle. A straight line passing through the center connecting the two distinct ends of the arc is termed a semi-circular arc.

Answer to Problem 27RP

The point where the perpendicular bisector meets the two circles is the locus.

Explanation of Solution

Given:

A circle with a chord.

Calculation:

Thelocus of points 2 cm from the circlewith the radius 10 cm and equidistant from the end points of the diameter can be described as follows-

Draw two concentric circles of radius 7cm and 3cm.

Draw the perpendicular bisector of the given diameter. The point where the perpendicular bisector meets the two circles is the locus.
