The calculated measure of angle KSD is 93 degrees

How to determine the measure of angle KSD in degrees

From the question, we have the following parameters that can be used in our computation:

The figure

Where, we have

AB || CD

m∠LRB = 7x + 10

m∠RSC = 8x + 5

This means that the line segments AB and CD are parallel lines

By the theorem of corresponding angles and angles on a line, we have

m∠LRB + m∠RSC = 180

This means that

7x + 10 + 8x + 5 = 180

So, we have

15x = 165

Evaluate

x = 11

The measure of angle KSD in degrees is calculated using

m∠KSD = m∠RSC

So, we have

m∠KSD = 8 * 11 + 5

Evaluate

m∠KSD = 93

Hence, the measure of angle KSD in degrees is 93
