CJBAT Spatial Awareness Questions and Answers 4

Question 1

A floor plan shows four rooms arranged in a 2×2 grid. Room A is top-left, Room B is top-right, Room C is bottom-left, Room D is bottom-right. If north is up, which room is directly south of Room B?

Accepted Answer

Room D

Answer

Room B is top-right (northeast); directly south of it in the grid is Room D (bottom-right/southeast).

Question 2

During a building search, an officer enters through the north door of a rectangular building and walks straight to the south wall, then turns and walks along the south wall to the east wall. The officer then turns and faces north. Which wall is now to the officer's left?

Accepted Answer

East wall

Answer

Facing north with the east wall directly behind the officer, the east wall is to the officer's right and the west wall is to the left — wait: officer is at the southeast corner facing north, so west is to the left and east is to the right.

Question 3

A building diagram shows Exit 1 on the north wall, Exit 2 on the east wall, Exit 3 on the south wall, and Exit 4 on the west wall. An officer inside needs to exit toward a waiting ambulance parked to the west. Which exit should the officer use?

Accepted Answer

Exit 4

Answer

The ambulance is to the west, so Exit 4 on the west wall is the most direct route.

Question 4

A three-story building floor plan shows a stairwell in the northwest corner. An officer on the second floor needs to reach the southeast corner of the third floor as quickly as possible. What is the best route?

Accepted Answer

Take stairs in the northwest, go to southeast on floor 3

Answer

Taking the stairwell to floor 3 and then crossing diagonally to the southeast is the most direct indoor route.

The couch is on the north wall, and when facing south, north is directly behind you.
