Question 1

In a visual pattern, a black dot moves one position clockwise around the corners of a square at each step. It starts at the top-left. Where is it after 5 moves?

Accepted Answer

Top-left

Answer

There are 4 corners; 5 moves mod 4 = 1 move from start, so top-left → top-right — wait: 5 mod 4 = 1, meaning 1 step from top-left clockwise = top-right.

Question 2

A pattern shows: one shape is inside another. The rule states that the inner shape always has fewer sides than the outer shape. Which is valid?

Accepted Answer

Circle inside a triangle

Answer

A circle (0/infinite sides, fewest) inside a triangle (3 sides) satisfies 'inner has fewer sides than outer.'

Question 3

Figures alternate between having horizontal lines and vertical lines as fill. Figure 1 has horizontal lines. Figure 4 has which fill?

Accepted Answer

Horizontal lines

Answer

Odd figures have horizontal lines; Figure 4 is even, so it has vertical lines — correction: figure 1=H, 2=V, 3=H, 4=V → vertical.

Question 4

In an abstract analogy: Dark large triangle is to light small triangle as dark large circle is to ___.

Accepted Answer

Light small circle

Answer

The transformation changes dark→light and large→small while keeping the shape, giving a light small circle.

Question 5

A sequence of figures: each figure has the same number of shapes as its position number (Figure 1 = 1 shape, Figure 2 = 2 shapes, etc.). Figure 5 has how many shapes?

Accepted Answer

5

Answer

The rule directly states the count equals the figure's position number, so Figure 5 has 5 shapes.
