The equation of line KT is: y = 12

Given the information:

Measure of angle IPT = 5x - 10

Line KP = 6x

We need to find the equation of line KT.

Since the measure of angle IPT is given in degrees, we can convert the measure of angle KP to degrees as well:

Measure of angle KP = 6x (in degrees)

Now, we can set the measure of angle IPT equal to the measure of angle KP and solve for x:

5x - 10 = 6x (in degrees)

Combining the terms with x, we get:

5x - 6x = 10

Solving for x, we find:

x = 2

Now that we have the value of x, we can substitute it back into the equation of line KP to find the equation of line KT:

y = 6(2)

y = 12

So, the equation of line KT is: y = 12
