Answer 1

So let's begin with the first one: hue. Would you like to give me your educated guess on the answer?

Answer 2

sure umm Hue,shade,tone and tint I think

Answer 3

It seems the question is asking you to match those 4 to their respective definitions.

Let me put it in a simpler step-by-step question for you:

What is hue?

A. darker version of the hue
B. a pure color
C. result of using 50 percent gray, which contains equal amounts of white and black
D. Hue lightened by adding white

Answer 4

umm ok I want to say for hue it's D

Answer 5

Okay. That's your guess. Thanks. :)

So let me lead you to reason a bit here. Every choice there that even has something happening to the hue...isn't the hue.

Answer 6

Whenever you think of hue, what's the first thing that comes to your mind? Just one word.

Answer 7

shade

Answer 8

idk

Answer 9

Correct.

Answer 10

It's also..a color.

Answer 11

So with that you have your first match.

Hue is a pure color.

Answer 12

Answer 13

Hmmm...not quite. Shade isn't hue brightened by adding white. Want to give another guess?

Answer 15

You have two more options to choose from. :)

Answer 16

Answer 17

A close answer, but not quite either. That would also be something else.
So I guess it's obvious that the remaining answer would be A.

Answer 18

Shade is a darker version of the hue.

Answer 19

It even sounds like "shadow", which when you think of it, is something dark.

Answer 20

But valiant effort! You have your second match. :)

Answer 21

Now, what do you think "tint" is?

Answer 22

I want to say C

Answer 23

Not quite, either. We'll get to that one in just a minute.

So if tint is not the equal amount of black and white.....what's left?

Answer 24

D

Answer 25

Correct. Tint is hue lightened by adding white.

Answer 26

So that leaves tone.

Answer 27

C

Answer 28

Yes indeed. Tone has equal amounts of black and white. And you can surely discover that by adding gray. :)

Answer 29

You have all your matches. I hope those definitions will serve you well in the future!
