SSA is considered ambiguous because there is more than one way the triangle could be looked  at. There is more then one way to look at the triangle because any number bigger than the height works two times in the triangle. We cant apply the law of sin to the information because the lengths that form two triangles form to different angles giving you different side lengths for the other side.  Since it works twice it gives you two different triangles to solve that have different angles and a different side length.
