1. The problem asks to find the measure of \(\angle ABC\) given that \(BD\) is an angle bisector in triangle \(ABC\) with \(\angle ABD = x + 6\) and \(\angle DBC = 2x - 3\). 2. Since \(BD\) is an angle bisector, it divides \(\angle ABC\) into two equal angles. Therefore, we set: $$x + 6 = 2x - 3$$ 3. Solve for \(x\): $$x + 6 = 2x - 3$$ $$6 + 3 = 2x - x$$ $$9 = x$$ 4. Substitute \(x = 9\) back into one of the angle expressions to find \(\angle ABD\): $$\angle ABD = x + 6 = 9 + 6 = 15^\circ$$ 5. Since \(BD\) bisects \(\angle ABC\), the full angle is twice \(15^\circ\): $$\angle ABC = 2 \times 15 = 30^\circ$$ Final answer: $$\boxed{30^\circ}$$
