How would you find the area of a triangle given the measurements of 1 angle and 2 sides?

OpenStudy (imstuck):

Is it a right triangle? Is the angle included between the sides? These are very important pieces of info to tell.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

No it's not a right triangle

http://1728.org/triang.htm Scroll down to side angle side formula (almost at the bottom) - I don't think it has to be a right triangle

Here's another link: http://www.mathwarehouse.com/trigonometry/area/side-angle-side-triangle.php As you can see it does not have to be a right triangle.
