We are given a figure that looks like a quadrilateral formed by a triangle and a rectangle. One angle of the quadrilateral is given as $150^\circ$. Two angles are right angles, $90^\circ$. The triangle is isosceles. We are asked to find the size of angle $k$, which is one of the angles in the isosceles triangle.

1. Problem Description

We are given a figure that looks like a quadrilateral formed by a triangle and a rectangle. One angle of the quadrilateral is given as 150150^\circ. Two angles are right angles, 9090^\circ. The triangle is isosceles. We are asked to find the size of angle kk, which is one of the angles in the isosceles triangle.

2. Solution Steps

The sum of the interior angles of a quadrilateral is 360360^\circ. Let the unknown angle adjacent to the 150150^\circ angle be xx. We can write:
90+90+150+x=36090^\circ + 90^\circ + 150^\circ + x = 360^\circ
330+x=360330^\circ + x = 360^\circ
x=360330x = 360^\circ - 330^\circ
x=30x = 30^\circ
Now, consider the triangle. Since the triangle is isosceles, the two angles opposite the equal sides are equal. Let the angles be kk and kk.
Then, k+k+x=180k + k + x = 180^\circ
2k+30=1802k + 30^\circ = 180^\circ
2k=180302k = 180^\circ - 30^\circ
2k=1502k = 150^\circ
k=1502k = \frac{150^\circ}{2}
k=75k = 75^\circ

3. Final Answer

The size of angle kk is 7575^\circ.
