1 unique triangle

Step-by-step explanation:

There are several ways to determine if the information given about a triangle produces a unique triangle or not. One option is to provide two side lengths and the angle included between them, this is known as SAS (side-angle-side) congruence, this is not to be confused with SSA (side-side-angle) congruence. Since this is one of the groups of givens that provides a unique triangle, then the number of unique triangles that can be drawn is 1 unique triangle.
