$A(1, 0)$,$B(0, 2)$,and $C(1, 2)$ are three points on the $XY$-plane. If a point $P(x, y)$ moves such that the area of $\triangle PAB$ is twice the area of $\triangle ABC$,then the locus of the point $P$ is:

  • A
    $4x^2 - 4xy + y^2 - 8x + 4y = 0$
  • B
    $4x^2 + 4xy + y^2 - 8x - 4y - 12 = 0$
  • C
    $4x^2 - 4xy + y^2 - 8x + 4y - 12 = 0$
  • D
    $4x^2 + 4xy + y^2 - 8x + 4y + 12 = 0$
