If the sum of the distance of a point from two perpendicular lines in the plane is 1, then find its locus.
-----------------------------------------------------------------

Imagine that these two perpendicular lines are x- and y-axis of a coordinate plane.

The the locus you are asking for is the straight line which passes through the points (0,1) and (1,0).
