Answer 1

Locus of a moving point is circle if it moves such that it keeps a fixed distance from a fixed point.

The locus is the set of all positions of the moving point. If the point always remains at a fixed distance from a fixed point, all such positions form a circle with the fixed point as centre and the fixed distance as the radius.
