Answer:

20 feet

Explanation:

Since they are two right triangles, you can prove that triangle BAD is congruent with triangle CAD through HL (hypotenuse leg)

BA = AC and AD = DA (with the reflexive formula)

Since they both have right angles, HL would be what proves that the two small triangles are congruent

Since BD = 20 feet then DC should also equal 20 feet since they are congruent triangles
