To solve the problem, we need to find the locus of a point whose distances from two perpendicular lines in a plane sum to 1. Let's break this down step by step. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Perpendicular Lines**: We consider the two perpendicular lines as the coordinate axes: the x-axis (y = 0) and the y-axis (x = 0). 2. **Define the Point**: ...
