SOLUTION:\

Step 1 :

In this question, we are meant to identify the vertex of the parabola.

By definition, the vertex of a parabola is:

The vertex of a parabola is the point at the intersection of the parabola and its line of symmetry.

For a parabola whose equation is given in standard form :


\text{y = a x}^2\text{ + bx + c }

The vertex will be the minimum (lowest point) of the graph if a>0 and the maximum (highest point) of the graph if a<0.

CONCLUSION:

From the graph, we can see clearly that the vertex of the parabola is:

( 1, 0 ) --- OPTION A
