Cut-e Test Cut-e Abstract Reasoning 1 — Questions and Answers
Question 1: In a sequence of shapes, the pattern alternates between a filled circle and an empty square. The 7th shape in the sequence is:
- Filled circle (Correct answer)
- Empty square
- Filled square
- Empty circle
Correct answer: Filled circle
Odd positions (1, 3, 5, 7) are filled circles; the 7th shape follows this odd-position rule.
Question 2: A matrix shows shapes rotating 90° clockwise with each step. If the shape starts pointing up, what direction does it point after 3 rotations?
- Up
- Right
- Down
- Left (Correct answer)
Correct answer: Left
Three 90° clockwise rotations = 270° total, pointing left from the original up position.
Question 3: In a series: 2 dots, 4 dots, 8 dots, 16 dots — how many dots follow?
- 24
- 28
- 32 (Correct answer)
- 36
Correct answer: 32
The sequence doubles each time: 2, 4, 8, 16, 32.
Question 4: A grid has three rows. Row 1: circle, square, triangle. Row 2: square, triangle, circle. Row 3 follows the same left-rotation pattern. What is the first shape in Row 3?
- Circle
- Triangle (Correct answer)
- Square
- Diamond
Correct answer: Triangle
Each row shifts shapes one position left; Row 3 starts with triangle (from Row 2's second position).
Question 5: In an analogy: Large dark circle is to small dark circle as large light square is to:
- Large dark square
- Small light square (Correct answer)
- Large light circle
- Small dark square
Correct answer: Small light square
The relationship is size reduction (large→small) with no fill change, so the answer is small light square.
Question 6: Shapes in a series increase by one side each step: triangle, square, pentagon, hexagon. What comes next?
- Octagon
- Heptagon (Correct answer)
- Nonagon
- Circle
Correct answer: Heptagon
The sequence adds one side each step: 3, 4, 5, 6 sides — the next shape has 7 sides (heptagon).
In a sequence of shapes, the pattern alternates between a filled circle and an empty square.
The 7th shape in the sequence is:
