To solve the equation \( m^2 = 169 \), we take the square root of both sides. The solutions are:

\[ m = \sqrt{169} = 13 \]
and
\[ m = -\sqrt{169} = -13 \]

Thus, the solutions are \( m = 13 \) and \( m = -13 \).

From the given options, the correct responses are:

- B: \(-13\)
- D: \(13\)

So, the correct answers are B and D.
