Measuring points to gain focal length?

I understand that for a F5 primary mirror this equals 50 inch focal length?
Yes No

I know I measure from the top of primary the distance up and thru the secondary for a total of 50 inches.

Yes No

If I am correct to this point where? or what point in or around my focuser is the end point I am measuring to. See attached diagram...........

Thanks in advance
