secondary colors like purple, orange, and green are mixed with primary colors to create tertiary colors. When naming a tertiary color, the primary color comes first. EX: Blue mixed with green would be called Blue-green.
Red and blue
A tertiary colour.
Colors that are opposite on the color wheel are called corespondent and they make the other color more emphasized.
Any 3 colors equidistant on the color wheel (if you can make a equilateral triangle in the color wheel, then those three colors are triadic) Example: Red yellow and blue
It makes white. If you take a color wheel and twirl it really fast (Newton Color Wheel) it turns into white, or off white-ish grey.
It depends on the complexity of the color wheel. You can make an accurate color wheel using only 3 colors; red, yellow, and blue. Adding green, orange, and purple can make a color wheel with 6. The standard color wheel that art students are introduced to uses these six plus six more (the tertiary colors) for a total of 12 colors. A perfectly rendered color wheel will not have a countable number of colors. The colors will be blended into each other, and the blending will be smooth enough that you cannot differentiate where each begins and ends. You can pick out an almost infinite number of colors from the color wheel.

Tertiary ColorsThe intermediate colors are the "two-name colors" yellow orange, red orange, yellow green, blue green, red violet, and blue violet. They are created by mixing the primaries in specific proportions according to their proximity to a primary color of red, yellow, and blue on the color wheel. For example, if an orange is closest to yellow on the color wheel it means that it has more yellow in it and therefore looks like a yellowish orange. The orange that is next to the red on the color wheel has more red in it and therefore appears to look reddish.Sometimes the intermediates are referred to as tertiary colors. The tertiary colors are not the same as intermediates as they are created by mixing the secondary colors. For example, orange and purple make russet, orange and green make citron, and purple and green make olive.So really the intermediate colors are yellow orange, red orange, yellow green, blue green, red violet, and blue violet.
You can create colors in small amounts, by blending either primary colors, primary colors with secondary colors, or primary colors with tertiary colors. You can also blend secondary and tertiary colors with each other to create small qunatities of dolors from larger quantites of colors.
Red and Green make brown. these two colors make brown because they are opposite colors on the color wheel. opposite colors make a brown (muddy like color) with this said, you now know that opposite colors on the color wheel, (colors that are on the same spot just on the other side) when mixed together will always make a brown (muddy like color) for example, yellow is opposite violet on the color wheel, so when mixed together they will make brown!
Any 3 colors equidistant on the color wheel (if you can make a equilateral triangle in the color wheel, then those three colors are triadic) Example: Red yellow and blue
A really ugly brown.
Brown is a combination of red, yellow and blue. A method of creating brown is discussed at http://www.wikihow.com/Mix-Paint-Colors-to-Make-Brown The contrasting color depends on the colors in the brown you want to contrast. The tertiary color wheel may be helpful with your search. Color Wheel Chart
the primar colors mixed together in pairs make secondary colors. Then secondary with primary made tertiary colors. primary: blue, red, yellow secondary: blue+red=purple(violet) blue+yellow=green red+yellow=orange tertiary: blue+purple=blue-purple red+purple=red-purple red+orange=red-orange yellow+orange=yellow-orange yellow+green=yellow-green blue+green=blue-green when naming tertiary colors - the primary color comes first.
