the figure defined by intersection of a cone and a plane.
No, a conic section does not have vertices. If it is a circle, it has a center; if it is a parabola or hyperbola, it has a focus; and if it is an ellipse, it has foci.

It sounds like this describes the conic section which is 2 straight lines intersecting at the origin [degenerate form of a hyperbola], but I may be misunderstanding the phrasing of the question.
It is a parabola.

Leibniz
A conic section is a curve formed by the intersection of a plane with a cone (conical surface). If the section is parallel to the base of the cone, the conic section has a fixed diameter and is a circle. Any other plane that does not intersect the apex is either a parabola, a hyperbola, or an ellipse.

Bi-truncated conic section, or doubly-truncated conic section
Parabolas have directori.
Any conic section.
A conic section is generated by the intersection of a plane with a double cone. The specific shape of the conic section (ellipse, parabola, hyperbola, or circle) depends on the angle of the plane in relation to the axis of the cone. The different conic sections result from different orientations of the cutting plane.
