Psychometric Test Abstract Reasoning 3

Question 1

A pattern shows one line added to a figure each step, but every third step removes one line. After steady growth, which step shows a decrease?

Accepted Answer

The third step

Answer

The rule states that every third step removes a line, so the decrease occurs at step three.

Question 2

Two overlapping circles create three regions. If a dot appears only where the circles overlap, where is it located?

Accepted Answer

The central intersection

Answer

The overlap is the shared central region where both circles intersect.

Question 3

A shape is reflected across a vertical line. A shape that points left will now point:

Accepted Answer

Right

Answer

Reflection across a vertical axis flips horizontal direction, so left becomes right.

Question 4

In a grid, each row sums its shapes to the third cell. If row one has 2 and 3 dots, the third cell has 5 dots; row two has 4 and 1. The third cell is:

Accepted Answer

5

Answer

The third cell equals the sum of the first two, and 4 plus 1 equals 5.

Question 5

A figure increases its number of internal segments by the prior two counts added together: 1, 1, 2, 3, ? What is next?

Accepted Answer

5

Answer

This follows the Fibonacci rule where each term is the sum of the previous two, so 2 plus 3 equals 5.
