  • A Circle centre P
  • B Pair of parallel lines each opposite to PQ
  • C Circle centre Q
  • D Perpendicular line to PQ
Correct Answer: Option D
Explanation:
The locus of points at a fixed distance from the point P is a circle with the given P at its centre.

The locus of points at a fixed distance from the point Q is a circle with the given point Q at its centre

The locus of points equidistant from two points P and Q i.e line PQ is the perpendicular bisector of the segment determined by the points

Hence, The locus of a point which is equidistant from the line PQ forms a perpendicular line to PQ
