B lies on the internal bisector of ∠ A D C . The external angle to ∠ B A D is 1 8 0 ∘ − 8 0 ∘ − 2 0 ∘ = 8 0 ∘ , hence B A is the external bisector of ∠ C A D . As B also lies on the internal bisector of ∠ A D C , it follows that B is the D -excenter of △ A D C , hence B C is the external angle bisector of ∠ A D C . It's easy to find ∠ A C D = 6 0 ∘ , hence ∠ B C A = 6 0 ∘ , and ∠ D B C = 1 0 ∘ .
