In a plane, what is the locus of points equidistant from the endpoints of a segment AB of length 10 cm?

umm, I'm thinking it is a perpendicular bisector because they said it's equidistant from the endpoints of a segment but the 10?! I have no idea about that O.o

hmm yes i think its perpendicualr bisector.. and the 10 cm is the length of line AB whose perpendicular you have to draw.. first make a straight line of 10 cm and then just get its perpendicualar.
