Draw a line from the center of the circle to the chord to form a right triangle.

The radius (20) forms the hypotenuse of the right triangle and distance from the center to the chord (16) forms a leg.

Use the Pythagorean Theorem to find the length of the other leg x (which would be 1/2 the length of the chord):

x^2 + 16^2 = 20^

x = 12

So the entire chord length = 12 * 2 = 24 units
