Words starting with complementarym
Maybe these words will be useful:
- complementary metal oxide semiconductor — (integrated circuit) (CMOS) A semiconductor fabrication technology using a combination of n- and p-doped semiconductor material to achieve low power dissipation. Any path through a gate through which current can flow includes both n and p type transistors. Only one type is turned on in any stable state so there is no static power dissipation and current only flows when a gate switches in order to charge the parasitic capacitance.
- complementary nondeterministic polynomial — (complexity) (Co-NP) The set (or property) of problems with a yes/no answer where the complementary no/yes problem takes nondeterministic polynomial time (NP). For example, "Is n prime" is Co-NP and "Is n not prime" is NP, since it is only necessary to find one factor to prove that n is not prime whereas to prove that it is prime all possible factors must be eliminated.
- complementary — Complementary things are different from each other but make a good combination.
- complementary angle — either of two angles whose sum is 90°
- complementary angles — either of two angles that added together produce an angle of 90°.
- complementary base — either of the nucleotide bases linked by a hydrogen bond on opposite strands of DNA or double-stranded RNA: guanine is the complementary base of cytosine, and adenine is the complementary base of thymine in DNA and of uracil in RNA.
- complementary color — Art. one of a pair of primary or secondary colors opposed to the other member of the pair on a schematic chart or scale (color wheel) as green opposed to red, orange opposed to blue, or violet opposed to yellow. Compare analogous color. the relationship of these pairs of colors perceived as completing or enhancing each other.
