Find the value of k. The diagram is not to scale.
A triangle is shown with one angle labeled 62 degrees, another angle labeled 45 degrees, and the last angle labeled k degrees.
(1 point)
The sum of the angles in a triangle is always 180 degrees. Therefore, we can set up the equation 62 + 45 + k = 180 and solve for k.
62 + 45 + k = 180
107 + k = 180
k = 180 - 107
k = 73
Therefore, the value of k is 73 degrees.
