Answer:

Option B). 10 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Distance between center and the focus of an ellipse is given by the formula,

c² = a² - b²

where, a = length of the major axis

b = length of the minor axis

and c = distance between focus and center

If c = 6 cm, b = 8 cm,

6² = a² - 8²

a² = 6² + 8²

a² = 36 + 64

a² = 100

a = 10 cm

Therefore, length of the major axis is 10 cm.

Option (B) is the answer.
