For that same ellipse the distance between the two foci is

  • A.40 mm
  • B.60 mm
  • C.100 mm
  • D.80 mm

Answer: D

Correct answer: 80 mm

The foci lie at \( \pm c \) from the centre, so the distance between them is \[ 2c = 2 \times 40 = 80\ \mathrm{mm}. \] With the major axis 100 mm, the foci sit 10 mm inside each vertex, which is the measurement used to set them out on the drawing.
