Correct Answer: $115°$


Solution :
Given: In $\triangle ABC$, the internal bisector of $\angle ABC$ and $\angle ACB$ meet at $I$ and $\angle BAC=50°$.
$\therefore \angle ABC+\angle ACB=180°-50°$
$⇒ \angle ABC+\angle ACB=130°$
In $\triangle BIC$,
$\angle IBC+\angle BIC +\angle ICB =180°$
$I$ is the internal bisector of $\angle ABC$ and $\angle ACB$.
$\therefore \frac{\angle ABC}{2}+\frac{\angle ACB}{2}+\angle BIC = 180°$
$⇒\angle BIC=180°-\frac{130°}{2}$
$⇒\angle BIC=180°-65°$
$⇒\angle BIC=115°$
Hence, the correct answer is $115°$.
