the opposite colour to red on the colour wheel is in fact and truely green.
Each secondary colour is situated opposite the one colour not used in its creation. Therefore the opposite colour to green on the colour wheel is red.
The opposite of the colour purple on a colour wheel is yellow. To figure this out you need to understand the concept of primary and secondary colours. If the colour you have is a primary colour (one of red, yellow or blue) then the opposite colour is the secondary colour resultant from mixing the two remaining primary colours. If the colour you have is a secondary (purple, green or orange) then the opposite colour is the primary not involved in the making of the secondary colour.
Violet is a shade of the secondary colour purple. If you check a colour-wheel the opposite is the primary colour yellow.
the opposite colour of yellow is purple on the colour wheel.

The colour at the opposite end of the colour spectrum is violet.
Each secondary colour is situated opposite the one colour not used in its creation. Therefore the opposite colour to green on the colour wheel is red.

It depends on what colour scheme it is. Normally, it would be white(top) red blue orange green yellow(bottom) (depending on which colour you place in front, but will end up the same) There is also a colour scheme where white is opposite blue, yellow is opposite green, and red and orange are opposite.
The colours are actually very different. Red is a primary colour and green is secondary colour. If you look at a colour wheel red is opposite green meaning they are complimentary colours so they work well together.
A colour opposite the original colour in the colour circle. Red-green, blue-yellow, etc. see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Complementary_color
Yes, they appear opposite one another on a standard colour wheel.
Orange is the color that is opposite of blue on the color wheel. They are color complements. The opposite of red is green, and the opposite of yellow is purple.(By paired RGB colors, the secondary color complementary to blue is yellow, to red is cyan, and to green is magenta. Blue is also the same distance from the midrange of the visible spectrum as yellow.)
The colour brown can be made by mixing colours from opposite sides of the colour wheel, or equivalently, by mixing all three primary (additive) colours: red, blue and yellow. For example a mix of red and green (which are opposite on the colour wheel, and include all three primary colours, as green is a mix of blue and yellow), will produce brown.
Violet is a shade of the secondary colour purple. If you check a colour-wheel the opposite is the primary colour yellow.
