Exercise 3. Prove that the locus of all points that are equidistant from two distinct points
A and B is the perpendicular bisector of AB (that is, the line that is perpendicular to AB
and bisects it). (Note: this is actually a biconditional statement since it is establishing the
equality of two sets, and therefore needs two separate arguments.)
