Question 1117645: a) a point P moves so that it is equidistant from the points A(1,2)and B(-2,-1).
find the Cartesian equation of the locus of P
b) P(4,7) and Q(-2,3) and M(x,y)are three points. Q is the midpoint of PM. find the coordinates of M

a) a point P moves so that it is equidistant from the points A(1,2)and B(-2,-1).
find the Cartesian equation of the locus of P
---------------
It's on the perpendicular bisector of the line between A & B
==============================

b) P(4,7) and Q(-2,3) and M(x,y)are three points. Q is the midpoint of PM. find the coordinates of M
