Adding to the other answer, A is dependant on the number of pins, which is common in connector datasheets (the same datasheet is used for a series of connectors with varying pin numbers).
So A is 1mm * number of spaces between pins, B is A + 2.1mm, and so on.
So for a 4 pin connector, A is 3mm, B is 5.1mm, C is 7mm.

You can use your real-world experience with units (or seeing which unit conversion is consistent) to know whether it is inches[mm] or mm[inches].
In this case it is obviously (if you have ever looked at a metric/imperial tape measure or rule) inches[mm] because 1 inch is humongous while 0.039mm is too small to see. Furthermore, \$0.039mm \ne 1 inch\$ so the ...

Pin 1 is "positive" if your system is setup like that. THERE IS NO REASON IT COULDN'T BE NEGATIVE! "Positive Tip" is something of a common standard, but there are examples where this is not true (for example - guitar pedals pretty much are all negative-tip, positive shield)
Pin #3 is a switch that is 'normal closed'. When no plug is in the jack, pins #...

Use a 2-pin molex connector pair similar to this. One of the pieces gets soldered into the board, the LED is soldered at the end of the wires.

That looks like an m3 or m2.5 broaching nut, but by the looks of it, it is not a solderable nut. It looks more like a press fit broaching nut, that is used for pressing into sheet metal or plastic. (you can tell by the corrugation on the sides which is typical of broaching nuts.)
A better way to do this is to use a solderable nut that is built for PCB's like ...

What is a good way to connect a LED to a PCB?
Use a ZIF (zero insertion force socket). Pull the handle to release the contact clamps, put the LED in and push the handle back to clamp the LED pins.

Yes and No.
Yes - you can plug them together.
No - would you want to fly on an aircraft where the JST GH female terminal was mated to a Molex PicoBlade in the auto pilot?

It's a 5 pin stereo headphone jack.
The connections are common, left, left speaker, right speaker and right.
The speakers get disconnected when the headphone is plugged in.

Pin 1 is negative for guitar effects pedals.
Pin 1 is positive for almost all other applications.
Don't ask me how I discovered the difference, but my son now has one fewer working effects pedal.
In both cases, pin 2, and pin 3 if used, are the other sign.
