Correct Answer: complementary


Solution : The correct word to fill in the blank is the first option.

It means that two things are different, but together they enhance each other's qualities. In the sentence, if their talents are complementary, it implies that their talents are different but work well together.

The meanings of the other options are as follows:

Complimentary: It means expressing praise or admiration and is often used to describe something that is given for free.

Complementing: It is the present participle form of the verb complement, which means to complete or enhance something by adding to it.

Complicating: It denotes making something more complex or difficult.

Therefore, the correct sentence is, "His and her talents are complementary ".
