It depends upon where the leg is. Assuming the 49 inch leg is opposite of the 36 degree angle, we know the third angle is 54 degrees (sum of a triangle's angles is 180 degrees). The law of sines states that the ratio of the sine of an angle to the side opposite the angle is equal for all three angles. This means that sin(36)/49 = sin(54)/x where x is the length of the side opposite the 54 degree angle. Solving that equation gets x = 67.44. Using the Pythagorean theorem, 49^2 + 67.44^2 = c^2 where c is the length of the hypotenuse. Solving yields c = 83.36. Summing the three sides together yields 49 + 67.44 + 83.36 = 199.80 inches.

If the 49 inch leg is adjacent to the 36 degree angle, swap 49 and x for the law of sines equation and solve.

If the total angle of a triangle is 180 degrees what should be the total perimeter of a triangle?

The sum of the 3 interior angles of any triangle ... no matter how large or small ... is always 180 degrees. This rule has no connection to the perimeter of the triangle. The perimeter may be one inch, less than one inch, 10 miles, more than 1,000 miles, etc., and the sum of the interior angles is always the same 180 degrees.

How many 1 inch triangles are needed to make a row of triangles that has a perimeter of 20 inches?

If a "1 inch triangle" means a triangle each of whose sides is 1 inch, then there is no answer to the question. These are equilateral triangles and equilateral triangles can tesselate to form a larger equilateral triangle. The fact that the large triangle is equilateral means that its three sides are equal so that its perimeter ie the sum of the three sides must be divisible by 3. 20 is not divisible by 3.
