Locus of Points with Constant Angle

​
angle θ
1.0472
This Demonstration plots the points for which line segments drawn from two fixed points on the
x
axis have angle
θ
. The locus consists of the arcs of two circles, with centers that move along the
y
axis as you vary
θ
. For
θ=90°
, the arcs are semicircles and the locus is a circle.
