AVertex with co-ordinates (1, 0)
BCentroid with co-ordinates (1, 1)
COrigin O with co-ordinates (0, 0)
DFocus with co-ordinates (0, 1)
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: C. Origin O with co-ordinates (0, 0)
1. Co-ordinate axes cross at one point.
2. That meeting point is called the origin.
3. Its co-ordinates are (0, 0).
4. So option A is correct.
