Explanation of Solution
Given information:
The givenstatement is “The set of all points in a plane that are equidistant from a given point in the plane called, the focus, forms a
Calculation:
There is no focus in a circle. The fixed point is the center of the circle and the distance from the center of the circle to any point on the circle is the radius.
Therefore, the given statement is false.
Therefore, the statement “The set of all points in a plane that are equidistant from a given point in the plane called, the focus, forms a circle” is false.
