Answer: You could have an infinite amount of triangles with these measurements.

Unless, you are missing something in the problem, there is not enough information that would narrow it down to a single triangle. Angle A is fixed and the height is fixed. However, Angle B and C could be anything as long as they formed a triangle and had side a of 15 in between them.
