Given that quadrilateral \( YLPS \) is congruent to quadrilateral \( VHTK \), we know that corresponding angles of congruent figures are equal.
You provided:
- \( m\angle Y = 57^\circ \) (corresponding to \( m\angle V \))
- \( m\angle S = 18^\circ \) (corresponding to \( m\angle T \))
We need to find \( m\angle K \) which corresponds to \( m\angle L \).
In any quadrilateral, the sum of the interior angles is always \( 360^\circ \). Therefore, we can find the angles of quadrilateral \( YLPS \):
\[
m\angle Y + m\angle L + m\angle S + m\angle P = 360^\circ
\]
Substituting the known values:
\[
57^\circ + m\angle L + 18^\circ + m\angle P = 360^\circ
\]
This simplifies to:
\[
75^\circ + m\angle L + m\angle P = 360^\circ
\]
\[
m\angle L + m\angle P = 360^\circ - 75^\circ
\]
\[
m\angle L + m\angle P = 285^\circ
\]
Since quadrilateral \( YLPS \) is congruent to quadrilateral \( VHTK \), angles \( L \) and \( P \) will correspond to angles \( H \) and \( K \), respectively. Therefore:
\[
m\angle H + m\angle K = 285^\circ
\]
We also know that angles \( L \) and \( P \) correspond to \( H \) and \( K \), which are not given specific values, hence we cannot determine \( m\angle K \) without additional information about either \( m\angle L \) or \( m\angle P \).
However, if we assume \( m\angle P \equiv m\angle K \) in this scenario as no values are given, using the relation derived from \( m\angle L + m\angle K = 285^\circ \):
We can set \( m\angle P = m\angle K = x \), then:
\[
m\angle L + x = 285^\circ
\]
Without loss of generality in this generic case without additional angle measurements provided, \( K \) could take a value contingent on various configurations resulting in:
We can conclude that \( m\angle K \) would have a degree to be determined accurately only through further given measures relating \( L \).
In conclusion, \( m\angle K \) is expressed in terms of either of the measures derived and cannot be individually calculated unless more data is provided, hence remains indeterminate but functionally relational yielding:
\[
m\angle K = 285^\circ - m\angle L
\]
Thus solving would require specific defined conditions for \( P \) and \( K \) to finalize the degree of \( K \).
