What is the locus of a point P which moves on one side of a straight line XY, so that the angle XPY is always equal to 90o?
-
A.
the perpendicular bisector of XY -
B.
a right-angled triangle -
C.
a circle -
D.
a semi circle
Correct Answer: Option D
Explanation
Since XY is a fixed line and
XPY = 90o P is on one side of XY
P1P2P3……Pn are all possible cases where
XPY = 90o the only possible tendency is a semicircle because angles in semicircle equals 90o
