To find the equation of the set of all points equidistant from the point (4, 2) and the X-axis, we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Define the Points Let \( P(4, 2) \) be the given point. We want to find the set of all points \( (x, y) \) that are equidistant from \( P \) and the X-axis. ### Step 2: Distance from Point to X-axis The distance from a point \( (x, y) \) to the X-axis is simply the absolute value of its y-coordinate, which is \( |y| \). ...
