1. Problem Description

We are given a quadrilateral ABDCABDC with angles B\angle B and C\angle C being right angles. We are also given that mBDC=(5x+39)m\angle BDC = (5x+39)^\circ and mA=(3x+13)m\angle A = (3x+13)^\circ. We need to find the value of xx and the measure of angle AA.

2. Solution Steps

Since ABDCABDC is a quadrilateral, the sum of its interior angles is 360360^\circ. Therefore,
mA+mB+mC+mBDC=360m\angle A + m\angle B + m\angle C + m\angle BDC = 360^\circ
We are given that mB=90m\angle B = 90^\circ and mC=90m\angle C = 90^\circ. We also have mBDC=(5x+39)m\angle BDC = (5x+39)^\circ and mA=(3x+13)m\angle A = (3x+13)^\circ. Substituting these values into the equation, we get:
(3x+13)+90+90+(5x+39)=360(3x+13) + 90 + 90 + (5x+39) = 360
8x+232=3608x + 232 = 360
8x=3602328x = 360 - 232
8x=1288x = 128
x=1288x = \frac{128}{8}
x=16x = 16
Now, we can find mAm\angle A by substituting x=16x=16 into the expression for mAm\angle A:
mA=(3x+13)m\angle A = (3x+13)^\circ
mA=(3(16)+13)m\angle A = (3(16)+13)^\circ
mA=(48+13)m\angle A = (48+13)^\circ
mA=61m\angle A = 61^\circ

3. Final Answer

x=16x = 16
mA=61m\angle A = 61^\circ
