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.
