   “The subtractive colour theory states that _                                             objects appear coloured because they
                             certain coloursof light and                                     or                                  other colours

Additive and subtractive colours
Answer the questions below.
 1. Complete each statement.
     a) The additive primary colours are __                              ,    .     , and                   -
        These colours are the same as the subtractive                               colours,
     b) The subtractive primary colours are                              i,              , and
                              . These colours are the same asthe additive                        colours.
 2. Complete the following colour equations.
     a) red + blue =                                 e) white — (cyan + yellow) =
     b) green + blue =                               f) white — (magenta + yellow) =
     c) red + green + blue =                         g) white ~- (cyan + magenta + yellow) =
    d) cyan + red =                                  h) white — (green + magenta) =
