Answer:
22.9 yards
Step-by-step explanation:
Since b² = a² - c² where a = vertex of major axis, 2a = 50 yards the length of the major axis. So , a = 50/2 = 25 yards. c = focus of chamber = 10 yards from center and b = vertex of minor axis.
So, b = ±√(a² - c²)
= ±√(25² - 10²)
= ±√(625 - 100)
= ±√525
= ±22.91 yards
≅ ± 22.9 yards
Since b = length of minor axis from center of chamber = 22.91 yards. So, he should build the whisper chamber 22.9 yards out from the center of the chamber.
The first x coordinate is given by 0 and the second one is given as j. So the length of the base is j. (Sometimes in math they give letters rather than numbers. And since you know it is an isosceles then the other vertex should be at x-coordinate half j or j/2.
