Which conic section is defined by the set of all points in a plane that areequidistant from a single point and a line?A. HyperbolaB. EllipseC. ParabolaD. Circle

Sagot :

Given:

The conic section that is defined by the set of all points in a plane that are equidistant from a single point and a line is a parabola since the parabola is equidistant from a fixed point that we call a focus and a fixed line that we call a directrix.

Therefore, the conic section is a PARABOLA.

Hence, option (C) is correct.
