in a plane
.
locus equidistant from A and B, is a line perpendicular to AB, at midpoint of AB
.
TWO POINTS are on this perpendicular line, 4 " from AB
.
in a 3 dim situation
.
loci between A and B, is a perpendicular plane to AB, at midpoint
.
the loci 4" from AB in the plane is a circle of 4"" radius, center at midpoint AB
.
