The length of another axis for the given ellipse will be around 25.6125 feet so none of the options will be correct.
What is an ellipse?
a regular oval form produced when a cone is cut by an oblique plane that does not intersect the base, or when a point moves in a plane so that the sum of its distances from two other points remains constant.
In another word, an ellipse is a curve that becomes by a point moving in such a way that the sum of its distances from two fixed points is a closed planar curve produced.
General equation of an ellipse
(x 2 / a 2 )+ (y2 / b 2 )= 1
Given that
the plot of land is 40 feet across one axis
so 2a = 40 feet
a = 20 feet
The foci are 16 feet from the center so
c = 16
Now we know that
c = √(b² - a²)
c² = b² - a²
16² = b² - 20²
b = 25.6125
So, the length of the minor axis will be around 25.6125 feet.
