Sample Questions

1multiple choice

In triangle ABC, the locus of points equidistant from sides AB and AC is:

Show answer

The angle bisector of angle A

The locus of points equidistant from two intersecting lines (sides AB and AC) is the angle bisector. Since AB and AC intersect at vertex A, the angle bisector of angle A contains all points equidistant from these two sides.

2true false

The perpendicular distance from any point on the locus to two given points is always equal.

Show answer

True

This statement is true for the perpendicular bisector locus. By definition, the perpendicular bisector of a line segment is the locus of all points equidistant from the endpoints. Every point on this locus has equal distance to both given points.

3multiple choice

A wheel of radius 10 cm rolls on a straight road. The locus of the center of the wheel is a line parallel to the road at distance:

Show answer

10 cm

When a wheel rolls on a straight road, its center maintains a constant distance from the road equal to the radius of the wheel. Since the wheel has radius 10 cm, the center's locus is a line parallel to the road at distance 10 cm above it.

4multiple choice

Points P and Q are 12 cm apart. How many points are exactly 5 cm away from both P and Q?
