The term 'complement' describes something, or things, which go well with another thing, or things; which completes an effect, or brings to perfection one or more things which alone might not be as effective.
For example: The tulips are lovely, and the crystal vase complements them perfectly; it really completes the picture.
A complement can also mean something or things which complete a set. For example: he'd been waiting for years to find the last two books in the set; now he's located them he has the full complement.
A complement also refers to the full crew required to run, for example, a ship: The ship can sail now the full complementis aboard.
In grammar, a complement is used to predicate a construction, for example, in He loves to go sailing, 'to go sailing' is the complement.
A complementary color can be either one of two colors which can be mixed to produce white (as light) or gray (as a pigment), or a color which possesses the greatest chromatic contrast to another, for example red-green. A color wheel situates complementary colors directly opposite.
The term 'complement' also has separate, specialized meanings in logic, geometry, maths, music, and science.

Find the angle which exceeds its complement by 8 degrees?
Angle + Its Complement = 90 degrees Angle = Its Complement + 8 degrees2*(Its Complement) + 8 degrees = 90 degrees2*(Its Complement) = 82 degreesIts Complement = 41 degreesAngle + 41 degrees = 90 degreesAngle = 49 degrees
How do you find the complement of a negative angle?
To find the complement of a negative angle, you first need to determine its positive equivalent by adding 360 degrees to the negative angle. Once you have the positive angle, you can then find its complement by subtracting the angle from 90 degrees. This will give you the complement of the negative angle in the range of 0 to 90 degrees.
How do you find the complement and a supplement of a number?
To find the complementary angle, you subtract 90 by the first given complement angle. To find the supplementary angle, you subtract 180 by the first given supplement angle.
