Answer :
The given sentence 'Had she been honest, she wouldn't have faced this humiliation.' is composed of two clauses. The clauses are :
1. 'she wouldn't have faced this humiliation'
This is the main clause or independent clause.
Cambridge English Dictionary defines 'independent clause' as 'a clause in a sentence that would form a complete sentence by itself.'
2. 'Had she been honest'
This is the subordinate clause or dependent clause.
Cambridge English Dictionary defines 'subordinate clause' as 'in grammar, a clause that cannot form a sentence on its own but can be joined to a main clause to form a sentence.'
