Correct Answer: complemented


Solution : The most appropriate choice is the fourth option.

The word complemented means when one thing enhances or goes well with another. In the context of the sentence, the word complement is the best choice because it means that his shirt goes well with or enhances the appearance of his trousers, making them work together perfectly.

The meanings of the other options are as follows:

  • Competed: Engaged in a competition or contest, striving to win or outdo others.

  • Complement: Something that completes or enhances another thing, making it whole or more perfect.

  • Commented : Provided comments or remarks on a particular subject or issue.
