----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------2 The diagram in the answer space shows a square PQRS, drawn on a grid of equal squares with sides of 1 unit. M, Y and Z are three moving points in the diagram. (a) (b) M is a point which moves such that its distance from the point Q and point S are the same. By using the letters in the diagram, state the locus of M. On the diagram, draw (i) (ii) the locus for the point X that is constantly 5 units from the line QR, the locus for the point Y that is constantly 7 units from the point R.
