if the angle is right or obtuse, then you're done.
One acute angle and a side does not determine the triangle.
To see this, just draw side AB, and draw an acute angle at A. Point C could be anywhere on the extended ray from A.
This isnt a specific question, its more of a "how do you find with only this" question. How do you find if a triangle is acute, right, or obtuse with only one angle measurement and one side length. I know that if you had 2 or 3 angle measurements you can find from that, but what do you do when you only have one side and one angle? What if this side is the hypotenuse?
