  1. In an AO shape-assembly question, you are given a parallelogram cut diagonally into two triangles. Which answer choice would be INCORRECT when reassembled?

    Answer: A hexagon

    Two triangles from a split parallelogram cannot form a hexagon; they reform the original parallelogram or a rectangle.

  2. A connector question shows a line that must run from a dot on piece A's upper edge to a dot on piece B's lower edge. The correct assembled image will have:

    Answer: Piece B attached below piece A via the connecting line

    Upper edge of A connects via line to lower edge of B, so B hangs below A.

  3. If a puzzle piece has a straight edge on one side and an irregular notch on the other three sides, which position is most likely correct for that piece in the final assembly?

    Answer: Along the outer border of the assembled shape

    A straight edge typically forms the outer boundary of the assembled shape, placing that piece on the border.

  4. An Assembling Objects question shows three pieces that together should form an 'L' shape. One triangular piece appears to be a distractor. How do you identify the distractor?

    Answer: Its edges do not match any edge of the other pieces

    A distractor piece has edges that cannot align with the remaining pieces to form the target shape.

  5. Two identical right-isosceles triangles are shown separately. When their hypotenuses are placed together, the result is:

    Answer: A square

    Two congruent right-isosceles triangles joined hypotenuse-to-hypotenuse form a square.

  6. In a connector problem, piece A has a dot at its bottom edge and piece B has a dot at its bottom edge. A line connects these two dots. What does the assembled figure look like?

    Answer: The pieces are placed with their bottoms toward each other, connected by the line

    Both dots are on the bottom edges, so the line connects the bottoms, pulling the two pieces toward each other base-to-base.

  7. When practicing the ASVAB Assembling Objects subtest, which strategy helps most for connector-type questions?

    Answer: Locate both dots and trace where the connecting line would run

    Finding both dots and mentally drawing the connecting line quickly eliminates wrong answer choices.
