A complex sentence is a sentence with an independent clause and at least one dependent clause (subordinating clause). The dependent clause is introduced by either a subordinate conjunction such as although, or because or a relative pronoun such as who or which.

• When I saw what you had done, I was sad and mad at you and that is the reason why I

hated you.

• • Independent clause: I was sad
  • Dependent clauses: When I saw and what you had done

• The worksheet is where you have put it.
  • A complex sentence with a sub-clause functioning as subject complement. "Be" is a copula verb;

it links the sub-clause to the subject.

• • Independent clause: The worksheet is (complement).
  • Dependent clause: where you have put it (acting as the complement)

Also when using a verb don't use "ing" endings.

• Some voters want special consideration that accounts for their handicaps.
  • This complex sentence's subordinate clause is offset by a relative pronoun rather than by a subordinating conjunction. "That" serves a nominal function and serves as a substitute for the noun "consideration" in the independent clause.
  • Independent clause: Some voters want special consideration
  • Dependent clause: that accounts for their handicaps (modifies the noun in the independent clause)
