If B is a complement of A this means that the sum of the measures of A and B is 90 degrees.

mA + mB = 90
mB =90 - mA
mB = 90 - 40 = 50

Thus, the measure of angle B is 50 degrees.

If C is a supplement of B then, the sum of the measures of B and C is 180 degrees.
mC + mB = 180
mC = 180 - mB
mC = 180 - 50 = 130

Therefore, the measure of angle C is 130 degrees.

Answer:

(C)It is the distance between –14 and 0 on the number line.

Step-by-step explanation:

The absolute value of a number returns a positive value no matter te number inside the absolute sign.

Therefore, the absolute value of -14 is 14.

That is: $|-14|=14$

It is the distance between -14 and 0 on the number line.

The correct option is C.
