Briefly explain the focus and directrix of a parabola?
the set of points equidistant from a fixed point
What is a point that is equidistant from all points on a circle?
The center of the circle. That's how the circle is defined. (The collection of all points on a plane equidistant from a fixed point. The fixed point is the center and the fixed distance is the radius.)
What is the locus of points in a plane that are equidistant from two fixed points?
I believe that is the definition of a straight line.
A perfectly round shape with all points equidistant from a fixed point or center is what?
a sphere
What is a three-dimensional surface in which all points are equidistant from a fixed point?
A 'spherical' surface.
What 3-dimensional figure is made from a set of points in space that are equidistant from a fixed point?
A sphere.
What geometric figure is described as the set of points equidistant from a fixed point?
It could be a circle or a sphere
Is the set of all points in a plane that are equidistant from a fixed point of the plane called the center?
That set of points forms what is known as a "circle".
A example of how a sphere is similar to a circle?
A circle, rotated about any diameter, will generate a sphere with the same radius. A circle is the locus of all points in 2-dimensional space that are equidistant from a fixed point. A sphere is the locus of all points in 3-dimensional space that are equidistant from a fixed point.
What figure is the locus of all points that are equidistant from two fixed points?
A line in 2D and a plane in 3D A perpendicular bisector of the line connecting the 2 given points
A compass draws all points that are equidistant from a fixed point thereby creating a locus of points for a circle?
A circle is the locus of all points equidistant from a given point, which is the center of the circle, and a circle can be drawn with a compass. (The phrase "locus of points for a circle" does not seem to be conventionally defined.) or true
What is the meaning of circle in math?
It is a round plane figure whose boundary (the circumference) consists of points equidistant from a fixed point (the center).
