1. $\triangle ABC$ has positive integer side lengths of $x$,$y$, and $17$. The angle bisector of $\angle BAC$ hits $BC$ at $D$. If $\angle C=90^\circ$, and the maximum value of $\frac{[ABD]}{[ACD]}=\frac{m}{n}$ where $m$ and $n$ are relatively prime positive intgers, find $m+n$. (Note $[ABC]$ denotes the area of $\triangle ABC$).
