Like night and day

My mom and dad are like night and day.

We say things are like 'night and day' when they are very different or opposite.

The difference between the new washing machine and the old one is like night and day.

My sister and I are like night and day.

Resembles

Everybody tells her how young she looks and how she resembles my sister.

To 'resemble' someone or something is to have a similar appearance.

He resembles George Clooney a little.

That rock kind of resembles an elephant.

Complement each other

My parents are completely opposite and they complement each other very well.

If two things or people 'complement each other' they match each other or have a nice balance. 

Do you think sweet and salty food complement each other?

My two jobs really complement each other.

One is active and at the other one I just sit.
