EDPT Figural Analogy Transformations 4 — Questions and Answers
Question 1: A small shape is on the left side of a large shape. After transformation the small shape is on the right side. If the small shape starts at the top of a large shape, after transformation it is:
- At the bottom (Correct answer)
- On the left
- In the center
- Unchanged
Correct answer: At the bottom
The transformation moves the small shape to the opposite side, so top becomes bottom.
Question 2: Figure A shows an L-shape. Figure B shows the L-shape rotated 180 degrees. Figure C shows a T-shape. Figure D shows:
- The T-shape rotated 180 degrees (Correct answer)
- The T-shape reflected horizontally
- The L-shape rotated 90 degrees
- The T-shape unchanged
Correct answer: The T-shape rotated 180 degrees
The 180-degree rotation rule from A→B is applied to the T-shape in C→D.
Question 3: A shape has a striped interior pattern running diagonally left-to-right. After transformation the stripes run diagonally right-to-left. This is a:
- Reflection of the internal fill pattern (Correct answer)
- Rotation of the whole figure
- Color inversion
- Addition of a second stripe layer
Correct answer: Reflection of the internal fill pattern
Reversing the diagonal direction of stripes is a reflection of the fill pattern, not of the shape itself.
Question 4: A circle is divided into 4 equal parts; 1 part is shaded. After transformation 2 parts are shaded. A square is divided into 4 equal parts; 1 part is shaded. After the same transformation:
- 2 parts of the square are shaded (Correct answer)
- All 4 parts are shaded
- 1 part remains shaded
- 3 parts are shaded
Correct answer: 2 parts of the square are shaded
The shaded section count doubles from 1 to 2, and this rule applies to the square as well.
Question 5: A large triangle contains a medium triangle, which contains a small triangle. After transformation only the large and small triangles remain. The medium level was:
- Removed (Correct answer)
- Merged with the large triangle
- Scaled down to microscopic
- Moved outside all other triangles
Correct answer: Removed
The middle layer is deleted, leaving only the outermost and innermost shapes.
Question 6: In Figure A, two shapes overlap with cross-hatching in the overlap area. In Figure B, the overlap area is now blank (no pattern). The transformation:
- Removes the overlap fill/pattern (Correct answer)
- Removes one of the two shapes
- Moves the shapes apart so they no longer overlap
- Doubles the cross-hatching density
Correct answer: Removes the overlap fill/pattern
Only the overlap region's fill is cleared; both shapes and their positions remain unchanged.
Question 7: Shape A: a circle with an X drawn inside it. Shape B: a circle with a plus (+) drawn inside it. The lines in the X were rotated 45 degrees to create the +. A square with an X inside becomes:
- A square with a plus (+) inside (Correct answer)
- A square with an X rotated 90 degrees
- A circle with an X inside
- A square with diagonal lines removed
Correct answer: A square with a plus (+) inside
The 45-degree rotation of the internal line pattern applies to the square the same way it applied to the circle.
