Question 3

In a matrix rule, each row's shapes must form a logical set where no attribute (size, shade, shape type) repeats within a row. A row has: small dark circle, large light circle. What completes the row?

Accepted Answer

Medium gray triangle

Answer

To avoid repeating shape type (circle) and to introduce a different size and shade, a medium gray triangle fits the no-repeat rule.
