Abstract: Given fixed distinct points $A,B,C,D$, we examine properties of the locus of points $X$ for which $(XA,XC)$, $(XB,XD)$ are isogonal. This locus is a cubic curve circumscribing $ABCD$. We characterize all possible such cubics $mathcalCinmathbb{R}^2$. These properties allow us to present constructions involving these cubics, such as intersections and tangent lines, using straightedge and compass.
