Complementary data sets are two groups of information that don't share any items, but when you put them together, they make up the whole picture. For example, if you divide all students into those who like apples and those who don't, those are complementary sets.
complementary data sets is a term used in Ontario’s Kindergarten to Grade 8 curriculum.
