In a sequence, each shape gains one extra side: triangle, square, pentagon, ? What comes next?
Answer: Hexagon
The pattern adds one side each step, so the figure after a pentagon (5 sides) is a hexagon (6 sides).
A figure rotates 90 degrees clockwise at each step. After starting upright, what is its orientation at the fourth position?
Answer: Back to upright
Four 90-degree clockwise turns equal a full 360-degree rotation, returning the figure to upright.
In a series, the number of dots inside a box doubles each time: 1, 2, 4, ? How many dots are next?
Answer: 8
Each term doubles the previous one, so 4 doubled equals 8.
A black circle alternates with a white circle in every other frame. If frame one is black, what color is frame six?
Answer: White
Odd frames are black and even frames are white, so frame six (even) is white.
An arrow points up, then right, then down, then left, repeating. Which direction is the seventh arrow?
Answer: Down
The cycle of four repeats, and the seventh arrow corresponds to the third position (down).
A large shape contains a small shape identical to itself nested inside. Which rule best describes the relationship?
Answer: Self-similarity at smaller scale
Containing a smaller copy of the same shape demonstrates self-similarity through scaling.
In a matrix, shading increases left to right and shapes get larger top to bottom. The missing bottom-right cell should be:
Answer: Largest and darkest
Both rules combine in the bottom-right corner, producing the largest and darkest shape.
