Answer:

c = 9

Explanation:

Since angle d and 59 are on a right angle (indicated by the small square)

We can equate the sum of these angles to 90:

d+59=90

Now we subtract 59 from both sides:

d+59-59=90-59

d=31

Since angles d,c and 140 are on a straight line we can equate the sum of these 3 to 180:

c+d+140=180

Substitute d with 31 from previous working out:

c+31+140=180

Simplify:

c+171=180

Subtract 171 from both sides:

c+171-171=180-171

Simplify:

c= 9
