Answer:

5 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets keep the missing side as x

And we also know that the area of Triangle is,

[tex] \frac{1}{2} bh[/tex]

So taking this into consideration we can write a linear equation like this,

[tex] \frac{1}{2} bh = 20[/tex]

Where height is 8,

[tex] \frac{1}{2} \times b \times 8 = 20 \\ 4 \times b = 20 \\ b = \frac{20}{4} \\ b = 5[/tex]

So therefore the missing side is 5

5 because the formula for a triangle is (l w) divide by two and you get the area so when you do the formula backwards you get 5
