Locus: Equidistant Point from a Fixed Point and a Fixed Line (Parabola)

2016-02-12 05:27
This applet demonstrates the geometric definition of a parabola. It constructs a moving point maintaining equal distances to a fixed point (focus) and a fixed line (directrix), dynamically illustrating the parabola's formation. Users can adjust parameters to observe shape changes, deepening their understanding of its geometric properties and the focus-directrix relationship.
