Step 1: Identify the type of quadrilateral. The image shows a quadrilateral with four equal sides (indicated by the single tick marks on each side) and one right angle at a vertex (indicated by the square symbol). A quadrilateral with four equal sides and one right angle is a square.

Step 2: Find the value of angle RR. In a square, the diagonals intersect at right angles. Angle RR is formed by the intersection of the diagonals. Therefore, R=90R = 90^\circ.

Step 3: Find the value of angle xx. In a square, the diagonals bisect the vertex angles. Each vertex angle of a square is 9090^\circ. Angle xx is formed by a diagonal and a side, which is half of a vertex angle. x=902x = \frac{90^\circ}{2} x=45x = 45^\circ

The unknown angles are: R=90R = \boxed{90^\circ} x=45x = \boxed{45^\circ}
