for 2nd)

x=sum of interior opp angles

using this formula we can get the other angle as 30 and hence the req side as same as 6

Hi,

I believe once it is possible to determine the length of 2 sides of the triangle and the angled formed by these 2 side, then it is sufficient.

Also, if you know all 3 of the angles as well as the length of 1 side, this is also sufficient.

In both cases, the Triangle is fixed, and only one such triangle can exist.
