To find the measure of angle A in a triangle, we can use the fact that the sum of the angles in a triangle is always 180 degrees. You provided two other angles: B = 25 degrees and C = 20 degrees.

We can set up the equation:

\[ A + B + C = 180 \]

Substituting the known values:

\[ A + 25 + 20 = 180 \]

Combining the known angles:

\[ A + 45 = 180 \]

Now, subtracting 45 from both sides:

\[ A = 180 - 45 \] \[ A = 135 \]

Therefore, the measure of angle A is 135 degrees.

None of the provided options (51, 39, 37, or 53 degrees) are correct based on the calculations. If the angle measures or provided angles are different, please verify and provide the correct values.
