When opposite colors neutralize each other, they produce a shade of gray. This is because colors opposite each other on the color wheel (complementary colors) cancel each other out when mixed together.
Where colours are opposite each other in the colour wheel, they are called complimentary colours, and indeed are seen as complimenting each other and matching well. They are usually quite contrasting, too.The three main pair of complimentary colours are:Blue & OrangeRed & GreenYellow & Purple
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.
Primary colours.
Opposite colors on the color wheel, also known as complementary colors, create strong contrast when used together. They can enhance each other when paired in a design but may also clash if not balanced properly.
Complementary colors are pairs of colors that are opposite each other on the color wheel. When placed next to each other, they create a strong contrast and intensify each other, making each color appear more vibrant. For example, red and green, blue and orange, and yellow and purple are complementary color pairs. The color diagram will show these pairs positioned opposite each other on the color wheel.
When you mix complimentary colours (colours opposite one another on the colour wheel) you will get a brown or black.
Red is a primary colour. It is one of the building blocks of colour. This means you can mix other primary colours (blue & yellow) to it to achieve secondary and tertiary colours, but you can not mix other colours to achieve red.
Complimentary colours are the opposite colours to the primary colours, these colours are created by mixing two primary colours together. For example, green is an opposite to red and is made by mixing blue and yellow. Purple is opposite to yellow and is made by mixing red and blue. And finally orange is opposite to blue and is made by mixing yellow and red together.
Blue and yellow are both primary colours. You can not add anything to one primary to achieve another.
Complimentary Colours
Red, Orange, Green, Blue, White, and Yellow. Usually red is opposite orange, green is opposite blue, and yellow is opposite white.
no there are same color, but the different between them is the intensity of light
Red is a primary colour and although it is one of the colours used to create secondary and tertiary colours and shades it is not possible to mix other colours to achieve a true red.
They are complimentary colours - colours opposite each other in the colour wheel. This makes them appear brighter and look awesome. :)
No. Just the opposite, actually.

Purple is a secondary colour. Secondary colours are the result of mixing equal parts of any two of the primary colours. To achieve purple mix equal parts of the primary colours Red and Blue.
