ABC is a triangle. Point P moves with vertex B as center and radius 2.8 cm. The locus of point P is :
bisector of angle ABC.
a line parallel to BC and at a distance of 2.8 cm from it.

Answer
We know that,
Locus of a point, in a plane and at a fixed distance from a given fixed point, is the circumference of the circle with the given fixed point as center and given fixed distance as radius.
∴ The locus of point P is a circle with center at point B and radius = 2.8 cm.
Hence, Option 3 is the correct option.
