Step-by-step explanation:

♤You can solve using the pythagorean theorem.

♡We will be using the variable 'x' to represent the variable 'b' in the picture provided.

◇In the pythagorean theorem, a and b represents bases while the c represents the hypotenuse (diagonal).

${a}^{2} + {b}^{2} = {c}^{2} \\ {x}^{2} + {12}^{2} = {20}^{2} \\ {x}^{2} + 144 = 400 \\ \frac{ \: \: \: \: \: - 144 = - 144}{ {x}^{2} = \sqrt{256} } \\ x = 16$
