Best Answer

Complementary colors are colors that make one another look good. For example, red looks good with green. When used together, they create a better piece of art. On the other hand, orange and blue are non-complementary colors. If they are used together, they do not look as good as the complementary colors.

What colors are opposite each other on the color wheel?

They are called complementary colors. The three primary colors on the color wheel are red (complement green), yellow (complement purple) and blue (complement orange). When used together, complementary colors (such as red and green) appear to be more intense than they do when used alone or with colors closer to them in the color spectrum. Complementary colors are the color pairs that are opposite of each other on the color wheel. Such as green and red.
