The length of a resonant antenna dipole is
- lambda
- lambda/2
- lambda/4
Explanation from PART66Online
A simple resonant dipole is a half-wave antenna, so its physical length is one half-wavelength (lambda/2) at the operating frequency. Each arm is therefore a quarter-wavelength, giving the correct current and voltage distribution for resonance. A full-wavelength element would not present the resistive feed impedance of a resonant dipole.

this is wrong in this website is has the same question with the correct answer being "lambda/2" .

A resonant antenna, or resonant-length antenna, is an antenna whose length is a quarter of a wavelength, or multiples thereof, long. In this case, the antenna is purely resistive and its reactance is zero, and hence the maximum amount of current flows through the antenna.

Υeah but there is exactly the same question here but with a labmda/2 answer.
