The image you've provided includes a geometric figure—a triangle—and asks to find the values of \(x\) and \(y\). It also gives some information:

- The angle at point \(A\) is \(49^\circ\).
- \(AB\) and \(BC\) have equal lengths, as indicated by the tick marks.
- The side \(AD = 6\).
- The sides opposite \(x\) and \(y\) are labeled, and the triangles involved seem to suggest use of trigonometry or properties of isosceles triangles.

Here’s how we approach this:

1. **Recognize the Triangle Properties**:
   - The triangle \(ABC\) looks like an isosceles triangle because the sides \(AB = BC\) are equal.
   - The sum of angles in any triangle must be \(180^\circ\).
   - We are given angle \(A = 49^\circ\), so the other two angles at \(B\) and \(C\) should add up to \(131^\circ\), and since triangle \(ABC\) is isosceles, each of these angles should be equal.
   - So, the angle at \(B\) and \(C\) will be \(\frac{131^\circ}{2} = 65.5^\circ\).

2. **Relation of Sides Using Trigonometry**:
   If we have enough information, we could use the law of sines or cosines to find the unknowns \(x\) and \(y\), but the exact approach will depend on the triangle configuration.

Would you like further steps to apply a specific method, or is there more information available in the problem? 

### Expanding on the situation:
1. What are the full angle measures in triangle \(ABC\)?
2. Are there any additional angle or side measures not visible in the image?
3. What trigonometric relationships can we use to solve for \(x\) and \(y\)?
4. How do we use the isosceles triangle property to solve this?
5. What laws of sines or cosines can be useful here?

**Tip**: Always check for symmetry in triangles and apply properties like equal angles or sides when possible!
