Correct answer: Cycle time.
Why this is the answer
Cycle time measures the total time a work item spends in an active or "in progress" state until it is completed. This directly answers the question about elapsed time from the Active state to completion. A Cumulative Flow Diagram (CFD) shows the number of work items in each state over time, indicating bottlenecks but not individual item completion time. Burnup charts track total work completed against total scope, while Burndown charts track remaining work against time, neither of which specifically measures the duration an item spends in a particular state like "Active" until completion.
