How do you calculate it? You start by expressing the density in the units you have. Then you multiply by appropriate conversion factors to get to the units you want. Treat units as though they were any other variable. A value cancels that appears in both the numerator and denominator of a fraction.

Remark
It's a right triangle so the Pythagorean Theorem applies. All you have to do is put the right things in the right places of the formula.

a = x
b = x + 4
c = 20
Formula and Substitution.
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
x^2 + (x + 4)^2 = 20^2
Solution
x^2 + x^2 + 8x + 16 = 20 Collect the like terms on the left.
2x^2 + 8x + 16 = 20 Subtract 20 from both sides.
2x^2 + 8x + 16 - 20 = 0
2x^2 + 8x - 4 = 0 Divide through by 2
x^2 + 4x - 2 = 0
Use the quadratic formula
a = 1
b = 4
c = - 2
From which x = (-4 +/- sqrt(24) ) / 2
x1 = (- 4 +/- sqrt(4*6) ) / 2
x1 = (- 4 +/- 2 sqrt(6) ) / 2
x1 = -2 + sqrt(6)
x2 = -2 - sqrt(6) This is an extraneous root. No line can be minus.
x1 = + 0.4495
x2 = x + 4 = 4.4495
