Answer 1

The problem is to calculate the angles of the triangle. However, it is not clear which angle you have to calculate, so we are going to calculate all of them

we know that
Applying the law of cosines
c²=a²+b²-2*a*b*cos C------> cos C=[a²+b²-c²]/[2*a*b]
a=12.5
b=15
c=11
so
 cos C=[a²+b²-c²]/[2*a*b]--->  cos C=[12.5²+15²-11²]/[2*12.5*15]
cos C=0.694------------> C=arc cos (0.694)-----> C=46.05°-----> C=46.1°

applying the law of sines calculate angle B
15 sin B=11/sin 46.1-----> 15*sin 46.1=11*sin B----> sin B=15*sin 46.1/11
 sin B=15*sin 46.1/11-----> sin B=0.9826----> B=arc sin (0.9826)
B=79.3°

calculate angle A
A+B+C=180------> A=180-B-C-----> A=180-79.3-46.1----> A=54.6°

the angles of the triangle are
A=54.6°
B=79.3°
C=46.1°
