To answer this question we need the equation of a parabola that uses the distance from the focus to the vertex.

This formula is,

[tex]4p(y-k)=(x-h)^2[/tex]

where,

p is the distance from the focus to the vertex, and the point (h,k) is the vertex.

[tex]\begin{gathered} \text{focus (2,0)} \\ \text{Threrefore} \\ p=2 \end{gathered}[/tex][tex]\begin{gathered} \text{vertex (0 , 0)} \\ \text{Therefore,} \\ h=0 \\ k=0 \end{gathered}[/tex]

Let us now substitute the data into the equation of the parabola,

[tex]\begin{gathered} 4\times2(y-0)=(x-0)^2 \\ 4\times2(y)=x^2 \\ 8y=x^2 \end{gathered}[/tex]

Hence, the equation for the parabola is, x² = 8y.

Option C is the correct answer.
