To find the measure of ∠DBC, we can use the fact that the sum of the angles in a triangle is 180 degrees.

∠ABC + ∠BCA + ∠BCD = 180°

Substituting the given values:

155° + ∠BCA + 60° = 180°

Simplifying the equation:

∠BCA + 215° = 180°

Subtracting 215° from both sides:

∠BCA = -35°

Since angles cannot have negative values, this result is not possible. Therefore, there must be an error in the given information or in the question itself.
