I think you need to actually construct a function that produces an isomorphism between the complement of G and the complement of H. Consider the function that does the "opposite" of the function that assigns the isomorphism from G to H.

Consider how to describe the complement of a graph in terms of G, H and their respective complete graphs. Then show that they are isomorphic.

Consider how to describe the complement of a graph in terms of G, H and their respective complete graphs. Then show that they are isomorphic.
