well, the triangle is an isosceles with twin sides, and so twin sides stemming from a common vertex will make twin angles on the other sides, the heck all that means?

well, it means that the twin sides of BC and BD make twin angles at C and D, so


6x-9~~ = ~~3x+24\implies 3x-9=24\implies 3x=33 \\\\\\ x=\cfrac{33}{3} \implies x=11 \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill\\\\ \underset{ C }{\stackrel{ 6(11)-9 }{\text{\LARGE 57}^o}}\hspace{5em}\underset{ D }{\stackrel{ 3(11)+24 }{\text{\LARGE 57}^o}}\hspace{5em}\underset{ B }{\text{\LARGE 66}^o}
