Statement 1 : If `aa n db` are real numbers and `c >0,` then the locus represented by the equation `|a y-b x|=csqrt((x-a)^2+(y-b)^2)` is an ellipse. Statement 2 : An ellipse is the locus of a point which moves in a plane such that the ratio of its distances from a fixed point (i.e., focus) to that from the fixed line (i.e., directrix) is constant and less than 1.
