Non-Verbal Reasoning Flashcards

Which shape is the odd one out?

Answer: Circle

The odd one out is the Circle because it is the only shape among the options that does not have straight sides or vertices. Squares, triangles, and hexagons are all polygons, defined by their straight edges and angles, whereas a circle is a curved shape.

What comes next in the sequence:

Answer: Triangle

The sequence follows a repeating pattern of three shapes: Square, Circle, Triangle. After the second occurrence of the "Circle" in the pattern, the next shape in the sequence must be the "Triangle" to complete the repeating cycle.

Which shape fits into the missing part of the puzzle?

Answer: Shape 1

The puzzle follows a pattern where each row and each column must contain one of each unique shape (Square, Circle, Triangle). By examining the third row, which currently has a Triangle and a Square, the missing shape must be the Circle to complete the set. Similarly, looking at the third column, with a Triangle and a Square, the missing shape is also a Circle.

Identify the shape that continues the pattern:

Answer: Hexagon

The pattern progresses by increasing the number of sides of the polygon by one with each step. Starting with a triangle (3 sides), then a square (4 sides), and a pentagon (5 sides), the next shape in the sequence must be a hexagon, which has 6 sides.

Which shape completes the grid?

Answer: Shape A

The grid follows a consistent pattern both horizontally and vertically. Horizontally, the shape changes from a circle to a square while maintaining the presence or absence of a dot. Vertically, the shape remains the same, but the dot disappears. Applying these rules to the bottom right cell, it should be a square (like the top right) but without a dot (like the bottom left).
