k  - 2*k + 1 = 0
$$\left(k^{2} - 2 k\right) + 1 = 0$$
Detail solution
This equation is of the form
a*k^2 + b*k + c = 0

A quadratic equation can be solved
using the discriminant.
The roots of the quadratic equation:
$$k_{1} = \frac{\sqrt{D} - b}{2 a}$$
$$k_{2} = \frac{- \sqrt{D} - b}{2 a}$$
where D = b^2 - 4*a*c - it is the discriminant.
Because
$$a = 1$$
$$b = -2$$
$$c = 1$$
, then
D = b^2 - 4 * a * c = 

(-2)^2 - 4 * (1) * (1) = 0

Because D = 0, then the equation has one root.
k = -b/2a = --2/2/(1)

$$k_{1} = 1$$
Vieta's Theorem
it is reduced quadratic equation
$$k^{2} + k p + q = 0$$
where
$$p = \frac{b}{a}$$
$$p = -2$$
$$q = \frac{c}{a}$$
$$q = 1$$
Vieta Formulas
$$k_{1} + k_{2} = - p$$
$$k_{1} k_{2} = q$$
$$k_{1} + k_{2} = 2$$
$$k_{1} k_{2} = 1$$
