    First we find the missing angle which is "C".

    We already know they add up to 180º, so that means you add the two given angles that is 45+65 which gives you 110º and then subtract 180-110=70º, C=70º and now you have all three angles and just need to find the side.

    To find that side, you'll have to use Sines.

    Sin (70) / 20 = Sin (65) / b

    cross multiply and you have something like 20 * Sin (65) / Sin (70) = b * Sin (70) / Sin (70)

    b = 11.7
