The calculated measure of the angle KM is 159 degrees

How to determine the measure of the angle KM

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

The circle

The sum of angles in a semi-circle is 180 degrees

Using the above as a guide, we have the following:

KM = 180 - 21

Evaluate

KM = 159

Hence, the measure of the angle KM is 159 degrees
