Three distinct points $A, B, C$ are given in a two-dimensional coordinate plane such that the ratio of the distance of each point from $(1, 0)$ to its distance from $(-1, 0)$ is equal to $\frac{1}{2}$. What is the circumcenter of triangle $ABC$?

  • A
    $\left( \frac{1}{3}, 0 \right)$
  • B
    $(3, 0)$
  • C
    $(0, 0)$
  • D
    $\left( \frac{5}{3}, 0 \right)$

The locus of a point which moves so that its distance from the $x$-axis is double its distance from the $y$-axis is:

Let $RS$ be the diameter of the circle $x^2+y^2=1$,where $S$ is the point $(1,0)$. Let $P$ be a variable point (other than $R$ and $S$) on the circle and tangents to the circle at $S$ and $P$ meet at the point $Q$. The normal to the circle at $P$ intersects a line drawn through $Q$ parallel to $RS$ at point $E$. Then the locus of $E$ passes through the point$(s)$:
$(A)$ $\left(\frac{1}{3}, \frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}\right)$ $(B)$ $\left(\frac{1}{4}, \frac{1}{2}\right)$ $(C)$ $\left(\frac{1}{3},-\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}\right)$ $(D)$ $\left(\frac{1}{4},-\frac{1}{2}\right)$

$A$ point moves in such a way that its distance from the origin is always $4$. Then the locus of the point is:
