Question 1120998: 1.(a) describe the locus of points in a plane 3 cm from the points on a circle
with radius 8 cm
(b) sketch the locus of points for the air valve on the tire of a bicycle as the bicycle moves down a straight path. Found 2 solutions by solver91311, Alan3354:Answer by solver91311(24713) (Show Source):
The locus of points 3 cm from a single point on any circle would be a circle of radius 3 with the given point as a center. Hence the locus of points 3 cm from ANY point on the circle with radius 8 cm would be an annulus with and
One question per post, please.

My calculator said it, I believe it, that settles it
You can put this solution on YOUR website! 1.(a) describe the locus of points in a plane 3 cm from the points on a circle
with radius 8 cm
=============
Too vague.
Is the plane parallel to the plane of the given circle?
If not, the radius of the circle is not relevant.
Do you mean 3 cms from any point on the circle?
