Statement 1 : In a triangle `A B C` , if base `B C` is fixed and the perimeter of the triangle is constant, then vertex `A` moves on an ellipse. Statement 2 : If the sum of the distances of a point `P` from two fixed points is constant, then the locus of `P` is a real ellipse.

Statement 1 : A bullet is fired and it hits a target. An observer in the same plane heard two sounds: the crack of the rifle and the thud of the bullet striking the target at the same instant. Then the locus of the observer is a hyperbola where the velocity of sound is smaller than the velocity of the bullet.
