The reason that Dizzy Gillespie had a bent Trumpet is because back in 1953 a dancer fell onto his trumpet, causing the bell to become bent at a 45° angle. Dizzy Gillespie ended up enjoying the tone of the trumpet and decided to have all of his later trumpets bells bent at a 45° angle.
Most people say it was bent to a 45 degree angle.
