because there is wrote JKL and PQR so from this result that to angle J correspond angle P,to angle Q correspond angle K and to angle L correspond angle R
so using these result that angle K has a measure of 48 degrees

hope this helped

Answer:

The measure of angle K is 48°.

Explanation:

Given information:
\triangle JKL \sim \triangle PQR, ∠P = 52° , ∠Q = 48° , and ∠R = 80°.

The corresponding angles of two similar triangles are congruent.

It is given that
\triangle JKL \sim \triangle PQR, So


\angle J=\angle P


\angle K=\angle Q


\angle L=\angle R

We have to find the measure of angle K.


\angle K=\angle Q=48^(\circ)

Therefore the measure of angle K is 48°.
