<h1 class="center">Set of All Points That ...</h1>
|
|
|
|
<p class="center">In Mathematics we often say <i>"the set of all points that ... ".</i><br>
|
|
What does it mean?</p>
|
|
|
|
<table style="border: 0; margin:auto;">
|
|
<tbody>
|
|
<tr>
|
|
<td><img src="../images/style/right-arrow.gif" alt="right arrow" height="46" width="46"></td>
|
|
<td>A <a href="sets-introduction.html">set</a> is just a collection of things with some common property.</td>
|
|
</tr>
|
|
<tr>
|
|
<td><img src="../images/style/right-arrow.gif" alt="right arrow" height="46" width="46"></td>
|
|
<td>When we collect ALL points that share a property we can end up with a line, a surface or other interesting thing.</td>
|
|
</tr>
|
|
</tbody></table><br>
|
|
<div class="beach">
|
|
|
|
<table style="border: 0; margin:auto;">
|
|
<tbody>
|
|
<tr>
|
|
<td><img src="images/set-points-line.svg" alt="set of points make line" height="10" width="280"></td>
|
|
<td><b>Points can make a line</b></td>
|
|
</tr>
|
|
</tbody></table>
|
|
|
|
</div>
|
|
<p> </p>
|
|
|
|
<div class="example">
|
|
|
|
<h3><i>Example:</i> A <a href="../geometry/circle.html">Circle</a> is:</h3>
|
|
<p>"<b>the set of all points</b> on a <a href="../geometry/plane.html">plane</a> that are a fixed distance from a central point".</p>
|
|
<p class="center"><img src="images/set-points-circle.svg" alt="set of points make circle" style="max-" height="105" width="479"></p>
|
|
<p>So, just a few points start to <i>look like a circle</i>, but when we collect ALL the points we will actually <b>have</b> a circle.</p>
|
|
</div>
|
|
<p>Try drawing one yourself (move any point):</p>
|
|
|
|
<div class="script" style="height: 360px;">
|
|
images/geom-locus.js
|
|
</div>
|
|
|
|
<p class="center">(Note: the points are drawn as dots so you can see them,<br>
|
|
but they really should have<b> no size at all</b>)</p>
|
|
<p style="float:left; margin: 0 10px 5px 0;"><img src="../geometry/images/sphere-radius.svg" alt="sphere radius" height="180" width="180"></p>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<h2>Surface</h2>
|
|
|
|
<p>Imagine this happening in <b>3D space</b>: all the points that are a fixed distance from a center make a <a href="../geometry/sphere.html">sphere</a>!</p>
|
|
<div style="clear:both"></div>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<h2>Locus</h2>
|
|
|
|
<p>The idea of "the set of all points that ..." is used so much it has a name: <b>Locus.</b></p>
|
|
<div class="words">
|
|
<p><b>A Locus is a set of points that share a property.</b></p>
|
|
</div>
|
|
<p>So, a circle is "the locus of points on a plane that are a fixed distance from the center".</p>
|
|
<p>Note: "Locus" usually means that the points make a continuous curve or surface.</p>
|
|
|
|
<div class="example">
|
|
<p style="float:right; margin: 0 0 5px 10px;"><img src="../geometry/images/ellipse.svg" alt="ellipse" height="210" width="220"></p>
|
|
|
|
<h3>Example: An <a href="../geometry/ellipse.html">ellipse</a> is the <b>locus</b> of points whose distance from two fixed points add up to a constant.</h3>
|
|
<p>So, no matter where we are on the ellipse, we can add up the distance to point "F" and to point "G" and it will always be the same result.</p>
|
|
<p>(The points "F" and "G" are called the <b>foci</b> of the ellipse)</p>
|
|
</div>
|
|
<p>The idea of "Locus" can be used to create some weird and wonderful shapes!</p>
