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.)
A perfectly round shape with all points equidistant from a fixed point or center is what?
a sphere
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).
What part of the circle that fixed distance from any point on a circle to the circle's center?
The radius is always at a fixed, unchanging distance from the center of a circle to all the surrounding 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
How is the word 'sphere' defined?
A sphere is a solid figure in which every point is equidistant from a fixed point called the center.
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.
