A triangular plot of land is enclosed by a fence. One side of the fence is 30.3 m long and an adjacent side of the fence is 18.5 m long. The inclusive angle between the two sides is 61°. Determine the third side of the fence to the nearest tenth of a metre.

A triangular plot of land has two sides, one measuring 295 meters and the other measuring 310 meters in length. If the angle between them is 104°, find the perimeter of the triangular plot. Find the perimeter and area of an isosceles triangle whose vertex angle is 35° and whose two equal sides each measure 15 cm.
