In a geometric proof, the "To - Prove" section states the theorem or statement that needs to be demonstrated. It clearly defines the goal of the proof.

Step1: Rewrite the equation in slope - intercept form

The general slope - intercept form is $y=mx + b$, where $m$ is the slope. Given $2x + 3y=0$, we solve for $y$:
$3y=-2x$, so $y =-\frac{2}{3}x$.

Step1: Set up the equation

Since an angle bisector divides an angle into two equal parts, if one of the bisected angles is $3x + 5$ and the whole angle $X Y Z$ is $50^{\circ}$, then $2(3x + 5)=50$.

Step2: Solve the equation

First, expand: $6x+10 = 50$. Then subtract 10 from both sides: $6x=50 - 10=40$. Divide both sides by 6: $x=\frac{40}{6}=\frac{20}{3}$. But if we assume the whole angle is $150^{\circ}$ (there may be a typo in the problem - if we consider the equation $2(3x + 5)=150$).
Expand: $6x + 10=150$. Subtract 10: $6x=140$, $x=\frac{70}{3}$. If we assume the equation is set up correctly for a $50^{\circ}$ angle, the value of one of the bisected angles $3x + 5$:
Substitute $x = \frac{20}{3}$ into $3x + 5$, we get $3\times\frac{20}{3}+5=20 + 5=25^{\circ}$.
