Maths: loci

How would you do the locus of points around a rectangle?

The Q: Draw the locus of all points that are exactly 4cm from the rectangle ABCD
First start with the straight lines of the rectangle. draw a line 4cm away - leave space for the loci of the point.

Then draw loci of point- using compass where the two arms are 4cm away(use ruler)

Sorry do it the other way round and sketch first- then outline and rub off to leave the parts u want.
