Answer

Sphere with center $(x_0,x_0,z_0)$ and radius $1$.

Work Step by Step

$$|\lt x,y,z\gt-\lt x_0,x_0,z_0\gt|=1$$ $$|\lt x-x_0,y-y_0,z-z_0\gt|=1$$ $$\sqrt{( x-x_0)^{2}+(y-y_0)^{2}+(z-z_0)^{2}}=1$$ $$( x-x_0)^{2}+(y-y_0)^{2}+(z-z_0)^{2}=1^{2}$$ The above equation represents the sphere with center $(x_0,x_0,z_0)$ and radius $1$.
