Lesson Plan (Equation of Locus)

The lesson plan is for a 70 minute Additional Mathematics class on coordinate geometry. The topic is on the equation of locus involving the distance between two points. Students will learn to find the equation of locus when the distance of a moving point from a fixed point is constant, and when the ratio of the distances of a moving point from two fixed points is constant. The lesson will begin with a video induction, then review the distance formula. Students will work through guided activities to derive the locus equations in each case and solve related problems.
