In a figural analogy A:B::C:?, how do you find the answer?
Answer: Identify the transformation from A to B, then apply the same to C
Identify what changed (rotation, size, color) between A and B, then apply identical changes to C.
If a large circle becomes small in the analogy, and C is a large triangle, what is the answer?
Answer: A small triangle
The transformation is size reduction. Applied to a large triangle, it produces a small triangle.
An analogy shows 90-degree clockwise rotation. How do you apply this?
Answer: Rotate the third shape 90 degrees clockwise
The rotation direction and degree must match exactly.
A white shape becomes shaded. The next shape has stripes. What should the answer look like?
Answer: The same shape with stripes and added shading
The transformation adds shading without removing existing features.
What is a double transformation in figural analogies?
Answer: Two changes happen simultaneously, like rotating and changing color
Double transformations involve two simultaneous changes.
A circle with a dot inside becomes an empty circle. What rule applies?
Answer: Internal elements are removed; outer shape preserved
