hi
example: describe the locus of points in a plane equidistant from points A and B |dw:1400857785529:dw|
use the distance formula, but im still working on how to make it more general
spose we have a center: (u,v,w) we can define all the points that are a distance of, r, from it as: (x-u)^2 + (y-u)^2 + (z-w)^2 = r^2 but that forms a sphere, we would need to employ the normal of a plane that slices thru it in some manner
is it as simple as taking the normal (a,b,c) and using it like a plane eqaution? a(x-u)^2 + b(y-u)^2 + c(z-w)^2 = r^2 maybe?
no, then they aint perp to it by definition ...
i honestly do not know how to complete this problem. that is all of the information that was given
im assuming that we would need to draw them out and then label them as different bisectors but i dont know how to draw those
