The set of all points that share a property. This usually results in a curve or surface.

Example:

Circle:

  • A Circle is "the locus of points on a plane that are a certain distance from a central point".
  • A circle is the locus of points that are equidistant from a fixed point (the center).

Parabola:

  • A parabola is the locus of points that are equidistant from a point (the focus) and a line (the directrix).

Ellipse:

  •  An ellipse is the locus of points whereby the sum of the distances from 2 fixed points (the foci) is constant. 
Hyperbola:
 
  • A hyperbola is the locus of points where the difference in the distance to two fixed foci is constant.
