Question 1

In a pattern, each figure has one more side than the previous. If Figure 1 is a triangle, what is Figure 6?

Accepted Answer

Octagon

Answer

Figure 1 = triangle (3 sides), Figure 2 = 4 sides, Figure 3 = 5, Figure 4 = 6, Figure 5 = 7, Figure 6 = 8 sides = octagon.

Question 2

A shape is reflected in a horizontal line. The original shape is a right-pointing arrow at the top. What does the reflection show?

Accepted Answer

Right-pointing arrow at the bottom

Answer

A horizontal mirror line flips the shape vertically (top to bottom) but does not change its horizontal direction. So a right-pointing arrow at the top becomes a right-pointing arrow at the bottom.

Question 3

In an analogy, a small dark triangle relates to a large light triangle. A small dark circle relates to what?

Accepted Answer

Large light circle

Answer

The relationship changes size (small → large) and shade (dark → light) while keeping the shape the same. So a small dark circle becomes a large light circle.

Question 4

A pattern of dots is shown: Row 1 has 1 dot, Row 2 has 3 dots, Row 3 has 5 dots. These form a triangular number pattern. How many dots are in Row 7?

Accepted Answer

13

Answer

The pattern is odd numbers: 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11, 13. Row 7 has 13 dots.

Question 5

A complete figure has two lines of symmetry — one vertical and one horizontal. The top-left quarter shows a black triangle. What must be in the bottom-right quarter?

Accepted Answer

Black triangle reflected twice

Answer

The bottom-right quarter is the result of reflecting the top-left quarter first in the vertical line, then in the horizontal line (or vice versa). This is equivalent to a 180-degree rotation.
