ADB=50+65+65=180
angle bisector -> angle on a line 180 degrees. 180-65=115
x= 180-115=65, 65/2=32.5
CBD=32.5+115+32.5
x=32.5

Actually, I asked about angle CBD, ( ∠ CBD ), not triangle CBD ( Δ CBD ).Frank212 said:
Maybe, that's what you mean by
" angle bisector -> angle on a line 180 degrees. 180-65=115 ",
but an angle bisector cuts an angle exactly into two angle of equal measure.So, yes, .∠ CBD = 180° - 65° = 115° .
It's really very confusing, and incorrect, when you state the following.
