The area of a triangle is equal to 41 sq cm and two of its sides measure 17 cm and 16 cm. Find the possible measure of the included angle in degrees of the given sides.

The other person is WRONG!! The INCLUDED angle is NOT 90.3151o.\r
\n" );
document.write( "\n" );
document.write( "Formula for the area of a NON-RIGHT triangle: \"matrix%281%2C3%2C+A%2C+%22=%22%2C+%281%2F2%29ab%29\" * sin ∡C, with ∡C being the INCLUDED angle, or the angle between the 2 GIVEN sides

document.write( "This is the INCLUDED-ANGLE measurement if this angle is the SMALLEST of the 3, which would make the unknown 3rd side, the SHORTEST of the 3,
