OC Spatial and Visual Reasoning 1 — Questions and Answers
Question 1: A shape has 4 equal sides and 4 right angles. What is it called?
- Rectangle
- Rhombus
- Square (Correct answer)
- Trapezoid
Correct answer: Square
A square has 4 equal sides and 4 right angles.
Question 2: If you rotate a triangle 180° around its center, the result is:
- A mirror image facing the same direction
- The triangle upside-down (Correct answer)
- A circle
- The triangle unchanged
Correct answer: The triangle upside-down
A 180° rotation turns the triangle upside down relative to its original position.
Question 3: How many lines of symmetry does a regular hexagon have?
- 4
- 5
- 6 (Correct answer)
- 8
Correct answer: 6
A regular hexagon has 6 lines of symmetry — one through each pair of opposite vertices and one through each pair of opposite edge midpoints.
Question 4: A cube has how many faces, edges, and vertices respectively?
- 6 faces, 12 edges, 8 vertices (Correct answer)
- 4 faces, 6 edges, 8 vertices
- 8 faces, 12 edges, 6 vertices
- 6 faces, 8 edges, 12 vertices
Correct answer: 6 faces, 12 edges, 8 vertices
A cube has 6 faces, 12 edges, and 8 vertices.
Question 5: What 3D shape is formed when a circle is rotated around its diameter?
- Cylinder
- Cone
- Sphere (Correct answer)
- Cube
Correct answer: Sphere
Rotating a circle around its diameter produces a sphere.
Question 6: Which shape has more than 2 lines of symmetry?
