\measuredangle LKN=60\text{ degr}ees

Step-by-step explanation

the sum of the internal angles of a triangle must be equal to 180

then

green angle+blue angle +red angle=180

replacing


\begin{gathered} 70+50+x=180 \\ \text{add similar terms} \\ 120+x=180 \\ \text{subtract 120 in both sides} \\ 120+x-120=180-120 \\ x=60 \end{gathered}

so,


\measuredangle LKN=60\text{ degr}ees
