Steps for solving compound loci problems:
1.Find all possible points for first locus. Mark with dotted line or smooth curve.
2. Find all possible points for second locus. Mark with dotted lines or smooth curve.
3.The points where the two loci meet are the solutions to the compound loci problem.
NOTES:
Compound Locus Examples:
Ex 1: Identify the points 4 units away from line AB and 6 units away from a point on line AB.
