Raven's Progressive Matrices Test Raven's Progressive Matrices Line and Angle Patterns

Question 1

In a 3×3 RPM matrix, a horizontal line (0°) appears in the top-left cell, a line at 45° in the top-center, and a vertical line (90°) in the top-right. What is the angular increment per step?

Accepted Answer

45°

Answer

30°

Answer

60°

Answer

90°

Question 2

A matrix row shows lines at 60°, 90°, and 120°. If the pattern continues in a fourth cell, what angle would appear?

Accepted Answer

150°

Answer

130°

Answer

140°

Answer

160°

Question 3

In an RPM problem, lines in each cell rotate 90° clockwise per column. If the first column shows a vertical line (90°), what does the third column show?

Accepted Answer

180° (horizontal)

Answer

90°

Answer

270°

Answer

0° (same as start)

Question 4

Which of the following best describes a 'constant angle' pattern in Raven's Progressive Matrices?

Accepted Answer

All lines in the matrix share the same orientation

Answer

Lines rotate by a fixed amount each column

Answer

Lines alternate between two angles

Answer

Lines decrease in angle across rows

Question 5

A matrix has lines at 0°, 45°, and 90° in column 1. Column 2 shows lines at 45°, 90°, and 135°. What rule governs this matrix?

Accepted Answer

Each column shifts all angles up by 45°

Answer

Each row increases by 45°

Answer

Angles decrease by 45° per column

Answer

Each cell contains perpendicular line pairs

Question 6

Accepted Answer

Diagonal from upper-right to lower-left

Answer

Horizontal

Answer

Vertical

Answer

Diagonal from upper-left to lower-right

Question 7

In a 3×3 RPM matrix, the angle of a line doubles each row (15°, 30°, 60°). Which concept does this represent?

Accepted Answer
