  1. A map has north pointing up. You walk north for 4 blocks, turn right, walk 3 blocks, then turn right again and walk 4 blocks. Which direction are you now facing?

    Answer: South

    Starting facing north, turn right = east, walk; turn right again = south; you are now facing south.

  2. A cube's opposite faces always sum to 7 (standard die). If the top shows 5, what is on the bottom?

    Answer: 2

    On a standard die, opposite faces sum to 7; 7 − 5 = 2, so 2 is on the bottom.

  3. A 2D net is folded into a triangular prism. How many faces does a triangular prism have?

    Answer: 5

    A triangular prism has 2 triangular bases and 3 rectangular sides, totaling 5 faces.

  4. A path goes: 3 steps east, 4 steps north, then straight back to the start. How long is the return path?

    Answer: 5 steps

    The east and north steps form the legs of a right triangle; hypotenuse = √(3² + 4²) = √25 = 5 steps.

  5. A shape has rotational symmetry of order 4. Through how many degrees does each rotation turn it onto itself?

    Answer: 90°

    Order 4 rotational symmetry means 4 equal rotations complete a full 360°; 360° ÷ 4 = 90°.

  6. An architect's drawing is at scale 1:100. A wall measures 2.5 cm on the drawing. How long is the real wall?

    Answer: 2.5 m

    Scale 1:100 means 1 cm on the drawing = 100 cm (1 m) in reality; 2.5 cm × 100 = 250 cm = 2.5 m.
