Question

The triad of secondary colours in the additive colour system is \underline{\hspace{1cm}}.

• A. Cyan, Magenta, Yellow
• B. Red, Green, Blue
• C. Purple, Green, Orange
• D. Magenta, Blue, Yellow

Hint:

Remember: RGB are primary in additive mixing (light), and CMY are secondary. For subtractive mixing (printing), CMY are primary.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is A

Step 1: Additive colour system basics.
- Primary colours in the additive system (used in light, screens, projectors): Red, Green, Blue (RGB).
- When two primary colours are mixed, they produce secondary colours.

Step 2: Deriving secondary colours.
- Red + Green = Yellow
- Red + Blue = Magenta
- Green + Blue = Cyan

Step 3: Triad of secondary colours.
Thus, the three secondary colours are Cyan, Magenta, and Yellow. \[ \boxed{\text{Cyan, Magenta, Yellow}} \]
