- Large square (Correct answer)
- Small triangle
- Large circle
- Small circle
Correct answer: Large square
The pattern doubles the size of the shape from left to right, so the missing figure is a large square.
Question 2: In a 2×2 matrix, the top row shows a white triangle → black triangle. The bottom row shows a white pentagon → which shape completes the matrix?
- White pentagon
- Black circle
- Black pentagon (Correct answer)
- White triangle
Correct answer: Black pentagon
The pattern changes the shape from unfilled (white) to filled (black), so the missing figure is a black pentagon.
Question 3: In a 2×2 matrix, the top row shows a horizontal rectangle → vertical rectangle. The bottom row shows a horizontal oval → which shape completes the matrix?
- Horizontal rectangle
- Vertical oval (Correct answer)
- Horizontal oval
- Vertical rectangle
Correct answer: Vertical oval
The pattern rotates the shape 90 degrees from horizontal to vertical orientation.
Question 4: In a 2×2 matrix, the top row shows a triangle with 1 dot → triangle with 2 dots. The bottom row shows a circle with 1 dot → which shape completes the matrix?
- Circle with 2 dots (Correct answer)
- Triangle with 2 dots
- Circle with 3 dots
- Square with 2 dots
Correct answer: Circle with 2 dots
The pattern adds one dot to the shape from left to right, so the missing figure is a circle with 2 dots.
Question 5: In a 2×2 matrix, the top row shows a star with 4 points → star with 8 points. The bottom row shows a star with 3 points → which shape completes the matrix?
- Star with 6 points (Correct answer)
- Star with 4 points
- Star with 9 points
- Star with 5 points
Correct answer: Star with 6 points
The pattern doubles the number of points on the star, and 3 × 2 = 6 points.
Question 6: In a 2×2 matrix, the top row shows a square with an X inside → square with a + inside. The bottom row shows a circle with an X inside → which shape completes the matrix?
- Circle with an X inside
- Square with a + inside
- Circle with a + inside (Correct answer)
- Circle with a – inside
Correct answer: Circle with a + inside
The pattern changes the internal symbol from X to + while keeping the outer shape the same.
