the magnitude of the result velocity of the rain drops =
√(20²+8²) = 21.54 m / sec

the direction of the resultant velocity vector with the vertical
= tan ⁻¹ (8/20) =38.05 deg.

The umbrella should be pointed in the direction opposite to the resultant velocity of the rain drops. So it should be in the direction 38.05deg. inclination to the vertical opposite to the direction of wind., towards East.
