It would be 16 meters
This is because you have to visualize it as a right triangle. The hypotenuse is 20, and one side is 12. Take the square of each number and take the absolute value of the difference. Once you’ve done that, take the square root of that number.
This involves using the Pythagorean theorem, and you can subtract one part to find the other side
