    The standard form of ellipse with vertical major axis and center at the origin is:

    x^2/b^2+y^2/a^2=1, a>b

    2a=length of the major axis=28

    a=14

    a^2=196

    2b=length of minor axis=20

    b=10

    b^2=100

    x^2/196+y^2/100=1

    making y the subject we get

    y=5/7 (196-x²) ^0.5
