1. **Stating the problem:** We have a square with side length $R=20$ cm. Inside the square, a diagonal arc runs from the upper-left corner to the lower-right corner, and the angle formed at the lower-left corner is $30^\circ$. We want to analyze this geometric configuration.
2. **Understanding the problem:** The square has all sides equal to $20$ cm. The diagonal of the square connects opposite corners, and the angle at the lower-left corner is marked as $30^\circ$. This suggests we are dealing with a right triangle formed by the diagonal and the sides of the square.
3. **Formula and rules:** The diagonal $d$ of a square with side length $R$ is given by:
$$d = R\sqrt{2}$$
The angle between the diagonal and the base in a square is normally $45^\circ$, but here it is $30^\circ$, indicating a different geometric setup or an arc inside the square.
4. **Calculations:** Given the angle $30^\circ$ at the lower-left corner, we can analyze the triangle formed by the base $R=20$ cm, the diagonal arc, and the vertical side.
Using trigonometry, if the angle at the lower-left corner is $30^\circ$, then:
$$\tan(30^\circ) = \frac{\text{opposite side}}{\text{adjacent side}} = \frac{\text{vertical side}}{20}$$
Since $\tan(30^\circ) = \frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}$, we have:
$$\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}} = \frac{\text{vertical side}}{20}$$
Solving for the vertical side:
$$\text{vertical side} = \frac{20}{\sqrt{3}} = \frac{20\sqrt{3}}{3} \approx 11.55 \text{ cm}$$
5. **Summary:** The vertical side corresponding to the $30^\circ$ angle is approximately $11.55$ cm, while the base remains $20$ cm.
6. **Final answer:** The vertical side length corresponding to the $30^\circ$ angle in the square with base $20$ cm is:
$$\boxed{\frac{20\sqrt{3}}{3} \approx 11.55 \text{ cm}}$$
