The measure of angle K in the triangle is 66°

An isosceles triangle is a type if triangle in which two of it's sides are equal and also two of it's corresponding angles are equal.

The sum of angles in a triangle is 180°. This means that angle I + angle H + angle K = 180°

Triangle HIK is an isosceles triangle

angle K = angle 1

represent angle K by x

Therefore;

x + x + 48 = 180

2x = 180 - 48

2x = 132

x = 66

Therefore the measure of angle K is 66°
