Raven's Progressive Matrices Test Raven's Progressive Matrices Figure Rotation and Reflection 4

Question 1

A figure is reflected across the anti-diagonal (top-right to bottom-left). A point at the top-left corner moves to the:

Accepted Answer

Bottom-right corner

Answer

Reflection across the anti-diagonal maps the top-left corner to the bottom-right corner.

Question 2

In a Raven's matrix, each figure in a column gains one additional rotational step of 90° clockwise moving downward. The top figure points west. What direction does the bottom figure (row 3) point?

Accepted Answer

East

Answer

Moving down two rows adds two 90° clockwise rotations (180° total), turning a west-pointing figure to face east.

Question 3

Which statement correctly describes a reflection (as opposed to a rotation)?

Accepted Answer

It reverses the handedness of a figure

Answer

Reflections reverse handedness (chirality), turning a left-hand shape into a right-hand shape and vice versa.

Question 4

A figure undergoes a 90° clockwise rotation followed by a reflection across the horizontal axis. Which single transformation produces the same result?

Accepted Answer

Reflection across the main diagonal

Answer

A 90° clockwise rotation combined with a horizontal reflection is equivalent to a reflection across the main diagonal.

Question 5

In a matrix pattern, a shape with an internal line at 45° is rotated 45° clockwise each step. After 4 steps, the internal line is at:

Accepted Answer

225°

Answer

Starting at 45° and adding four 45° clockwise steps (180° total) brings the line to 45° + 180° = 225°.
