Final answer:

The measure of angle T in the kite is 30 degrees, found by subtracting the measure of angle R (150 degrees) from 180 degrees to account for the fact that adjacent angles in a kite are supplementary.

Step-by-step explanation:

The student has asked to find the measure of angle T in a kite given the measures of angles R and S. In a kite, adjacent angles are supplementary because they are consecutive angles between two intersecting lines.

Since the measure of angle R is given as 150 degrees and the measure of angle S is 80 degrees, we can find the measure of angle T by using the fact that the sum of angles R and T should be 180 degrees (supplementary).

To find the measure of angle T, the calculation is as follows: m = 180 degrees - m = 180 degrees - 150 degrees = 30 degrees. Therefore, the measure of angle T is 30 degrees.
