Answer:

angle 1 is 39

angle 3 is 51

Explanation:

Here, we want to get the value of angle 1 and angle 3

Let’s have the meeting point of the diagonals as E

Hence , ADE is a right triangle

Thus,

39 + angle 3 = 90

angle 3 = 90-39

angle 3 = 51

Furthermore;

we can see that ABD is isosceles, meaning that the base angles are equal

Thus, we have it that;

angle 3 and angle at B (for AEB triangle) are equal in values

So, we can conclude that the angle is 51 too

so if the angle is 51 too, then the triangles ADE and ABE are similar

That simply means angle marked 1 is 39
