1. Problem Description

The problem states that the end of a charger plugged into a phone is an isosceles trapezoid. Given that the measure of angle NN is 140140^{\circ}, we need to find the measure of angle KK.

2. Solution Steps

In an isosceles trapezoid, the base angles are equal.
Therefore, mN=mM=140m\angle N = m\angle M = 140^{\circ}.
Also, consecutive angles between the bases are supplementary, meaning they add up to 180180^{\circ}.
So, mK+mM=180m\angle K + m\angle M = 180^{\circ} and mJ+mN=180m\angle J + m\angle N = 180^{\circ}.
Substituting the value of mMm\angle M, we have mK+140=180m\angle K + 140^{\circ} = 180^{\circ}.
Solving for mKm\angle K, we get mK=180140=40m\angle K = 180^{\circ} - 140^{\circ} = 40^{\circ}.

3. Final Answer

mK=40m\angle K = 40^{\circ}
