Raven's Progressive Matrices Test Shading and Fill Pattern Rules 2

Question 1

A matrix shows a shading gradient darkening from right to left across all rows. The missing cell is in column 1. What shade does it display?

Accepted Answer

Dark

Answer

Column 1 consistently holds the darkest shade since the gradient darkens moving from right to left.

Question 2

In a checkerboard-patterned 3×3 matrix with alternating black and white cells, the top-left corner is black. What color is the bottom-right corner?

Accepted Answer

Black

Answer

In a 3×3 checkerboard, cells on the main diagonal (top-left to bottom-right) all share the same color.

Question 3

A matrix shows shapes with shaded segments increasing by 2 per column: 0 in column 1, 2 in column 2, and ___ in column 3?

Accepted Answer

4

Answer

Adding 2 shaded segments per column gives the sequence 0, 2, 4 — so column 3 has 4 shaded segments.

Question 4

Each column in a matrix has a fixed fill style: column 1 is solid, column 2 is hatched, and column 3 is outline only. What fill does the missing column 3 cell show?

Accepted Answer

Outline only

Answer

Column 3 consistently displays outline-only fill throughout the entire matrix.

Question 5

The shaded half of each shape rotates clockwise 90° per column: column 1 shades the left half, column 2 shades the bottom half, and column 3 shades ___?

Accepted Answer

Top half

Answer

Rotating the shaded half clockwise 90° from bottom-half gives top-half for column 3.
