  1. A sequence shows: 1 dot → 2 dots → 4 dots → 8 dots → ?

    Answer: 16 dots

    The pattern doubles each time: 1, 2, 4, 8, 16. This is a geometric sequence with ratio 2.

  2. If a shape has exactly 4 lines of symmetry, which shape is it most likely to be?

    Answer: Square

    A square has exactly 4 lines of symmetry: two along the midpoints of opposite sides, and two along the diagonals.

  3. In a pattern where each figure is the previous one rotated 45° clockwise, if figure 1 is an arrow pointing up, what direction does figure 5 point?

    Answer: Down

    Figure 5 is 4 steps from figure 1: 4 × 45° = 180°. An arrow pointing up rotated 180° points down.

  4. A figure shows three shapes: a pentagon with a dot inside, a triangle with a dot inside, and a circle with no dot. Which shape is the odd one out?

    Answer: Circle

    The pentagon and triangle both have a dot inside; the circle does not. The circle is different because it lacks the interior dot.

  5. A series of figures shows a square being divided: first into halves (2 parts), then quarters (4 parts), then eighths (8 parts). How many parts would the next figure have?

    Answer: 16

    The number of parts doubles each time: 2, 4, 8, 16. The next figure has 16 parts.

  6. Which of the following best describes the 'mirror image' transformation applied to the letter 'b'?

    Answer: p

    The mirror image of 'b' (reflected horizontally, as if flipping left-right) is 'd'. Reflecting vertically (top-bottom) would give 'p'. Reflecting both axes gives 'q'.
