There are no possible positions for Ismael's house.

In this case, we need the following geometrical constructions:

1) Given that Ismael's house has the same distance from towns A and B, we must create a line segment between A and B and perpendicular line passing through the midpoint of line segment AB.

2) Since Ismael's house is 20 miles away from town C, we must create a circle centered at C.

All possible positions of Ismael's house are the set of points where both the perpendicular line and the circle intercepts each other. After making all operations defined above, we conclude that there are no possible positions for Ismael's house.
