Solution

Answers may vary. 

Techniques include "completing" the triangle with sides of length 4 and 10 and arguing that half of its area must be 20 square units, chopping off and relocating a chunk of the right triangle to create a rectangle whose area is 20 square units, and "completing" individual unit squares to create a total of 20 unit squares.


Hope this helps
