Loci demonstration
Loci are a set of points that all follow a specific rule or condition, creating a specific line, curve, or region. They usually require constructions using a pencil, ruler, and pair of compasses.
The example below demonstrates the grazing area for an animal tied to the corner of a building. Alternatively, explore loci when a ring slides along a horizontal pole.
