The info in the post is not enough to give a unique answer.

Actually, there are infinitely many non-congruent triangles satisfying to the given data and having different values of the length of the segment DB.

So, the offered problem is DEFECTIVE (is a fake).

Also note that the midpoint is a point and CAN NOT be named/called as BD.

The name BD suits for segments ONLY.
