I just took this quiz.

The answer is 143 because the angles of a triangle always add up to 180. And if you subtract off 27 and 10 from 180, you will get 143.

To find the measure of the third angle you should keep in mind the following:
The sum of the three interior angles of a triangle is 180 °.
We have then
k + 27 + 10 = 180
Clearing k:
k = 180-27-10 = 143
K = 143 °
Answer:
the value of k is 143 °
