Answer

\[c\ \vartriangle \ \left[ c\ \square \ \left( c\ \vartriangle \ c \right) \right]\]is \[c\].

Work Step by Step

Find \[c\ \vartriangle \ \left[ c\ \square \ \left( c\ \vartriangle \ c \right) \right]\]as, \[\begin{align} & c\ \vartriangle \ \left[ c\ \square \ \left( c\ \vartriangle \ c \right) \right]=c\ \vartriangle \ \left( c\ \square \ e \right) \\ & =c\ \vartriangle \ b \\ & =c \end{align}\] Hence, the value of \[c\ \vartriangle \ \left[ c\ \square \ \left( c\ \vartriangle \ c \right) \right]\]is \[c\].
