To find the measure of the other angle, we need to subtract the given angle measure from 90° (since complementary angles add up to 90°).
90° - 40° = 50°.
The measure of the other angle is 50°.
Now, we need to find the value of a, the measure of the other angle expressed as a variable.
Since (8 + 2)" represents 10", and the measure of the other angle is 50°, we can equate the two measures to find the value of a.
50° = 10"
Therefore, the value of a is 10. Answer: \boxed{10}.
90° - 40° = 50°.
The measure of the other angle is 50°.
