An ellipse is divided into two axes, the longer axis is the major axis and the shorter axis is the minor axis. The length of the major axis of an ellipse is equal to the sum of two distance: the distance between any point on the ellipse and one on focus and the distance between the same point and the other focus. The focus is the point that helps define an ellipse and every ellipse has two foci. These two distance are also called the red line segment and blue line segment. Given 6 for red line segment and 4 for blue line segment therefore, the length of the major axis of the ellipse is 10.
