Question 1

A matrix has shapes where the number of sides decreases by 1 going down each column. If the top shape is a hexagon, what is the bottom shape in a 3-row column?

Accepted Answer

Square

Answer

Hexagon (6 sides) → pentagon (5) → square (4), so the bottom shape is a square.

Question 2

In a 3×3 grid, shading follows a diagonal pattern from the top-right to the bottom-left. If the top-right and center cells are shaded, which cell is shaded in the bottom row?

Accepted Answer

Left cell

Answer

The diagonal runs top-right → center → bottom-left, so the bottom-left cell is shaded.

Question 3

A pattern alternates between a shape and its mirror image. The first figure is an arrow pointing left. What is the third figure?

Accepted Answer

Arrow pointing left

Answer

Odd-numbered positions all show the original left-pointing arrow, so the third figure points left.

Question 4

Each row in a matrix has a shape that gains one internal line segment with each column. Column 1 has no lines, column 2 has one line. How many lines does the shape in column 3 have?

Accepted Answer

Two

Answer

The number of lines increases by one per column, so column 3 has two internal lines.

Question 5

A series of figures shows a square with an internal shape that rotates 45° counterclockwise each step. If step 1 shows a diamond, what does step 3 show?

Accepted Answer

Square (aligned to sides)

Answer

Two 45° counterclockwise rotations total 90°, turning the diamond into a square aligned to the sides.
