Not quite sure what the "at 50m" means.
Also, knowing the other stake is 65m from the end of the pond does no good.
Now, if the two stakes are at the ends of the pond, and the given distances are as measured from the observation point, then the distance between the stakes can be calculated using the law of cosines, since you have two sides and the included angle.
If not, then you had better describe the situation more clearly.
