To find the measure of the angle at point D, we can use the fact that the sum of the angles in a triangle is always 180 degrees.
Since angle O is 41 degrees and angle G is right angled (90 degrees), the remaining angle at point D can be found by subtracting the sum of the other two angles from 180 degrees.
180 - 41 - 90 = 49 degrees.
Therefore, the measure of the angle at point D is 49 degrees.
