Detailed Solution

Given point A=(1, 0), B=(0, 1)

Let p=(x, y) be locus of point.

Given that PA+PB=2

PA=2-PB squaring on b.s PA2=4+PB2-4PB (x-1)2+y2=4+x2+(y-1)2-4PB x2+1-2x+y2=4+x2+y2+1-2y-4PB -2x+2y-4=-4PB Again squaring on bs (x-y+2)2=4PB2 x2+y2+4-2xy-4y+4x=4  x2+(y-1)2 x2+y2-2xy-4y+4x+4=4x2+4y2+4-8y 3x2+2xy+3y2-4x-4y=0
