Answer:

16

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use the Pythagorean theorem to find the  height

a^2 + b^2 = c^2 with a and b legs and c the hypotenuse

The triangle is a right triangle with legs GH and FG and hypotenuse FH

FG^2 + GH^2 = FH^2

FG ^2 + 12^2 = 20^2

FG^2 +144 = 400

Subtract 144 from each side

FG^2 +144-144 = 400-144

FG^2 =256

Take the square root of each side

sqrt(FG^2) =sqrt(256)

FG = 16
