Defines color more accurately than the color wheel and uses three scales in three dimensions to specify the values, Hugh, and chroma. There are five principal hues designated by a single letter, and five intermediate Hughes, designated by two letters, all arranged in a circle. Each of these 10 years is subdivided into four parts and given the numbers 2.5, five, 7.5, and 10. Each of the 10 basic uses given the number five, indicating that they are midway between the adjacent Hughes and represent the most saturated color of that particular hue. When necessary, the colors can be further subdivided into 100 different hues

Answer 30

Complimentary colors

Question 31

Answer 31

Monochromatic color scheme
