Answer:

3

Step-by-step explanation:

A = [tex]\frac{base1 + base2}{2}[/tex] x h     Formula

[tex]\frac{base1 + 5}{2}[/tex] x 20 = 80      Substitution

[tex]\frac{base1 + 5}{2}[/tex] = 4                 Work  (divide by 20, multiply by 2, subtract 5)

base1 + 5 = 8

base1 = 3                  Solution
