Answer: 7.5

Form your proportion. Let x be the width of QRST.

Length of ABCD      Length of QRST
-----------------------  =  ------------------------- 
Width of ABCD         Width of QRST

8/5 = 12/x

Solve for x by cross-multiplying.
(8)(x) = (12)(5)
8x = 60
x = 7.5

We see a right triangle here.
Use the Pythagorean Theorem:
a^2+b^2=c^2
a & b=legs
c=hypotenuse
a^2+15^2=20^2
a^2+225=400
a^2=175
a=13.2287565553
a=13.2
The missing side is 13.2cm
