That is called destructive interference.
constructive or destructive interference
When the two waves meet, a wave interference occurs, causing them both to take on a different shape at the moment they meet.
well think about it... if they cancel each other out, are they constructive or destructive?

Interfere with each other. This interference can be either constructive or destructive.

Interference means two waves meet each other. If the waves are in same phase, they'll enhance each other, creating a bigger wave or a bigger maximum at that point. If they are in opposit phase, they'll undo each other either fully or partially. This is called an destructive interference wave.

In physics, the point where waves of light or sound are moving towards each other and meet
Interference
Because sounds are made up of waves of compressed and decompressed air, and when two waves meet that are exactly out of phase, or opposite each other, then the total sound produced is zero. See "sound cancellation" in the link below.
