The principle of complementary colors, how to determine them?
The eight colors – red, orange, yellow, green, cyan, teal, blue, and purple – go around the circle in order across its eight equal parts, with the colors that face each other being complementary colors. Regarding the principles, they are available in general analytical chemistry books.
Blue pairs with yellow, green pairs with magenta, and red pairs with cyan; these are complementary colors to each other, meaning that adding yellow is equivalent to subtracting blue, adding green is equivalent to subtracting magenta, and adding red is equivalent to subtracting cyan. The color is red, similar to that of the trumpet vine, while cyan is the light blue we usually refer to. I’m not sure if what I said is correct.
