Given:

The function is in the form
y=(x-h)^2

We need to determine the value of h.

Value of h:

The value of h can be determined using the coordinates of the vertex (h,k)

The vertex of the parabola is the point at which curve makes a turn.

Hence, from the graph, we can see that the parabola makes a turn at the point (2,0)

Thus, the vertex (h,k) = (2,0)

Equating the corresponding coordinates, the value of h is given by


h=2

Thus, the value of h is 2.

Hence, Option C is the correct answer.
