The formula to calculate the Semi Major Axis of an Ellipse is:
\[ a = \frac{2a}{2} \]
The Semi Major Axis of an Ellipse is half of the chord passing through both the foci of the ellipse. The Major Axis of an Ellipse is the length of the chord passing through both foci of the ellipse.
Let's assume the following value:
Using the formula:
\[ a = \frac{20}{2} = 10 \]
The Semi Major Axis of the Ellipse is 10 meters.
