Wynken, Blynken and Nod are three mathematics students.  While the three are revising trigonometry, Nod sets the following problem for his two companions:

“ABC is a triangle with  and . To three significant figures, what is the size of the largest angle in the triangle?”

Wynken and Blynken set to work, and several minutes pass. “70.8 degrees,” states Wynken confidently.  “118 degrees,” insists Blynken a moment later.

Demonstrate that Wynken’s and Blynken’s responses may both be correct answers to the problem Nod has set them.

Suggest an additional piece of information that Nod could provide, that would allow his problem to have a single unique solution.
