Question 1

A pattern shows shapes doubling: 1 triangle, 2 triangles, 4 triangles, ___. What comes next?

Accepted Answer

8 triangles

Answer

The number of triangles doubles each step, so 4 × 2 = 8.

Question 2

A matrix row shows: striped circle, striped square, striped triangle. The next row shows plain versions of each. What rule governs the rows?

Accepted Answer

The fill pattern changes but the shapes stay the same

Answer

The shapes remain identical while the fill switches from striped to plain.

Question 3

In a serial figure set, a square rotates 45° clockwise each step. After four steps starting from upright, what does the figure look like?

Accepted Answer

Upright square (back to start)

Answer

Four rotations of 45° = 180°... wait — 4 × 45° = 180°, giving an upside-down square which looks like an upright square.

Question 4

A 3×3 matrix has shapes arranged so that each row and each column contains exactly one circle, one square, and one triangle. The top row is circle-square-triangle, the left column is circle-triangle-square. What is the center cell?

Accepted Answer

Circle

Answer

The center row must contain triangle-circle-square (to complete both the row and column constraints), placing a circle in the center.

Question 5

Each step in a sequence adds a border around the previous figure: step 1 is a dot, step 2 is a dot inside a circle, step 3 is a dot inside a circle inside a square. What is step 4?

Accepted Answer

Dot inside a circle inside a square inside a triangle

Answer

Each step adds the next shape as an outer border, following the established sequence of shapes.
