    Solution

    Competed: This means to participate in a competition or contest, striving to win against others. In the context of the sentence, it doesn't make sense because shirts and trousers don't typically compete with each other. Complement: This refers to something that completes or enhances something else by providing balance or making it whole. In the context of the sentence, it refers to the shirt completing or enhancing the trousers by matching or harmonizing with them.   Commented: This means to express an opinion or remark about something. In the context of the sentence, it doesn't make sense because the action described is not about making a comment but rather about the relationship between the shirt and trousers. Complemented: This is the correct answer. It means to go well with or enhance the qualities of something else. In the context of the sentence, it describes how the shirt perfectly matches or harmonizes with the trousers, enhancing the overall appearance.
