Question 1

A 3×3 matrix has circles in row 1, squares in row 2, and triangles in row 3. Each row has small, medium, and large shapes. What shape fills the bottom-right cell?

Accepted Answer

Large triangle

Answer

Row 3 has triangles; the bottom-right corner must be the large triangle to complete the size sequence.

Question 2

Each figure in a series gains one extra side: triangle, square, pentagon, ___.

Accepted Answer

Hexagon

Answer

Triangle (3 sides), square (4), pentagon (5), so the next is hexagon (6 sides).

Question 3

A shape is reflected across a vertical axis. If the original has a star in the top-right, where is the star after reflection?

Accepted Answer

Top-left

Answer

Reflecting across a vertical axis swaps left and right, moving the star from top-right to top-left.

Question 4

In a number matrix, row 1 = [2, 4, 8], row 2 = [3, 6, 12]. What is the missing value in row 3 = [5, 10, ___]?

Accepted Answer

20

Answer

Each row doubles its values: 5 × 4 = 20, or 10 × 2 = 20.

Question 5

A figure is rotated 180°. An arrow originally pointing up now points ___.

Accepted Answer

Down

Answer

A 180° rotation reverses direction, so an upward arrow now points down.
