COOP Non-Verbal Reasoning 4 — Questions and Answers
Question 1: In a number-pattern analogy: 2 → 4 → 8. The same rule gives: 3 → 6 → ___.
- 9
- 12 (Correct answer)
- 10
- 8
Correct answer: 12
The rule is doubling each time, so 3 → 6 → 12.
Question 2: A picture shows: big circle inside a square, small circle inside a square. The analogy continues: big triangle inside a circle, ___ inside a circle.
- Big triangle
- Small triangle (Correct answer)
- Big circle
- Small square
Correct answer: Small triangle
The pattern reduces the inner shape from big to small while keeping the outer shape the same.
Question 3: A grid pattern shows diagonal stripes going from upper-left to lower-right. After rotating the grid 180°, which way do the stripes run?
- Upper-left to lower-right (unchanged) (Correct answer)
- Upper-right to lower-left
- Horizontal
- Vertical
Correct answer: Upper-left to lower-right (unchanged)
Diagonal stripes from upper-left to lower-right remain going upper-left to lower-right after a 180° rotation.
Question 4: Three objects are shown from above: a cone looks like a circle, a cylinder looks like a rectangle, a cube looks like a square. From above, what does a pyramid look like?
- Circle
- Triangle
- Square (Correct answer)
- Rectangle
Correct answer: Square
A square-based pyramid viewed from directly above shows its square base.
Question 5: A sequence: △ ○ △△ ○○ △△△ ___. What comes next?
- ○○○ (Correct answer)
- △△△△
- ○○
- △△
Correct answer: ○○○
The sequence alternates triangles and circles, each group growing by one, so after △△△ comes ○○○.
Question 6: A code uses shapes for letters: ■=A, ●=B, ▲=C. What does ■●▲ represent?
- BAC
- ABC (Correct answer)
- CAB
- CBA
Correct answer: ABC
Reading left to right, ■=A, ●=B, ▲=C spells ABC.
Question 7: Which image shows two shapes that are congruent (same size and shape, possibly rotated or reflected)?
- A large triangle and a small triangle
- A circle and an oval
- A square and a rectangle
- Two triangles with the same side lengths but different orientations (Correct answer)
Correct answer: Two triangles with the same side lengths but different orientations
Congruent shapes have identical dimensions; two triangles with the same side lengths are congruent regardless of orientation.
In a number-pattern analogy: 2 → 4 → 8.
The same rule gives: 3 → 6 → ___.
