In this specific example one would use the Law of Cosines. The Law of Cosines is defined as:
* a2 = b2 + c2 - 2bc(cos(A)) In this case, we need to switch the formula to fit our sides:
* c2 = a2 + b2 - 2ab(cos(C)) Now, we just input are given numbers into the equation:
* c2 = (10)2 + (15)2 - 2(10)(15)cos(62o) Make sure your calculator is in degree mode when solving this equation.
* c2 = (100) + (225) - (300)cos(62o) * c2 = 325 - 140.84 * c2 = 184.16 (Square root each side)
* c = 13.57

If it's a right angle triangle then use Pythagoras' theorem to find the 3rd side
That will depend on other values of the triangle because a triangle has 3 sides and 3 interior angles that add up to 180 degrees

If you are really talking about a closed triangle ABC, then the length of side "a" (given as 19) does not matter in the calculation. Sum of the angles of a triangle is 180 degrees. Angle B and C add up to 15 + 65 = 80 degrees. Hence angle A is (180 - 80) = 100 degrees

obtuse scalene triangle
No.
Any triangle whose sides are in the same ratio with the corresponding sides of ABC.

Use Pythagoras' theorem for a right angle triangle to find the length of the 3rd side.
It must be 65 degrees because there are 180 degrees in a triangle. 90+25+65 = 180
In right triangle ABC, angle C is a right angle, AB = 13and BC = 5 What is the length of AC? Draw the triangle to help visualize the problem.
