An archway is modeled by the upper half of the circle
x
2
+
y
2
=
400
x^{2} + y^{2} = 400
x

+
y
2
=
400
, where
x
x
x
and
y
y
y
are measured in meters. A horizontal support beam connects the two sides of the arch at a height of
y
=
12
m
y = 12\,\text{m}
y
=
12
m
. Calculate the length of this support beam.
