The area, a, of an ellipse can be determined using the formula a = πxy, where x and y are half the lengths of the largest and smallest diameters of the ellipse.

Which is an equivalent equation solved for y?

y = a · πx
y = a + (πx)
y = a – πx
y = a ÷ (πx)

This is just
a=pixy
Isolate the y
I'll assume you know how to solve for a variable, x, in a basic equation like x+3=5
Well, in this is the same
y=...?
To isolate the y, you'll need to divide the a by pi and x
