Topic :- about loci
A locus is a set of points satisfying a certain condition. For example, the locus of points that are 1cm from the origin is a circle of radius 1cm centred on the origin, since all points on this circle are 1cm from the origin. ... Questions on loci (which is the plural of locus) often don't use the term.
Loci
This section covers Loci within Geometry and Measures.
A locus is a set of points satisfying a certain condition. For example, the locus of points that are 1cm from the origin is a circle of radius 1cm centred on the origin, since all points on this circle are 1cm from the origin.
N.B. if a point P is ‘equidistant’ from two points A and B, then the distance between P and A is the same as the distance between P and B, as illustrated here:

The points on the line are equidistant from A and B
Don’t let the term 'locus' put you off. Questions on loci (which is the plural of locus) often don’t use the term.
Example
The diagram shows two points P and Q. On the diagram shade the region which contains all the points which satisfy both the following: the distance from P is less than 3cm, the distance from P is greater than the distance from Q.

All of the points on the circumference of the circle are 3cm from P. Therefore all of the points satisfying the condition that the distance from P is less than 3cm are in the circle.
If we draw a line in the middle of P and Q, all of the points on this line will be the same distance from P as they are from Q. They will be therefore closer to Q, and further away from P, if they are on the right of such a line.
Therefore all of the points satisfying both of these conditions are shaded in red.
