Description:
Geometric Loci: activity in which one explores relationship between 2 fixed point (A and B) and the rest of the points (P) in the plane. We scan the plan and color in red points that satisfy the relation and yellow otherwise. The relations are:PA-PB=0; ABS(PA-PB)<=R; PA+PB<=R. Next we color-code points by the values of those R's. Users are welcome to define their own relationships.
