let∠DBM=∠MBC=φ       ∠ECM=∠MCB=θ  2θ+2φ=90°  ⇒θ=45°−φ  ⇒∠BMC=180°−45°=135°  (6/(sinφ))=((2(√2))/(sin(45°−φ)))=(x/(sin135°))  (√2)sinφ=3(sin45°cosφ−cos45°sinφ)  sinφ=(3/2)(cosφ−sinφ)  5sinφ=3cosφ  let sinφ=t, t>0  5t=3(√(1−t^2 ))  25t^2 =9(1−t^2 )  34t^2 =9  t=(3/(√(34)))=sinφ  (6/(3/(√(34))))=(x/(1/(√2)))  x=BC=2(√(17))

Sir, looking at the solution^�     How do i know angle    BMC = 180 − 45.  Thanks sir.

2θ+2φ=90°  ⇒θ+φ=45°  ∠BMC=180°−(θ+φ)=180°−45°=135°

$$\mathrm{2}\theta+\mathrm{2}\phi=\mathrm{90}° \\ $$$$\Rightarrow\theta+\phi=\mathrm{45}° \\ $$$$\angle{BMC}=\mathrm{180}°−\left(\theta+\phi\right)=\mathrm{180}°−\mathrm{45}°=\mathrm{135}° \\ $$
