  1. Which number comes next in the sequence: 2, 5, 10, 17, 26, ___?

    Answer: 37

    The differences between consecutive terms are 3, 5, 7, 9, 11 — odd numbers increasing by 2 — so 26 + 11 = 37.

  2. If all Blips are Blops, and some Blops are Blaps, which conclusion must be true?

    Answer: Some Blips may be Blaps

    Since only some Blops are Blaps, it is possible but not certain that some Blips (which are Blops) are also Blaps.

  3. What letter is missing in the pattern: A, C, F, J, O, ___?

    Answer: U

    The gaps between letters increase by 1 each time: +2, +3, +4, +5, +6 — O is the 15th letter, so 15 + 6 = 21, which is U.

  4. A square is rotated 90° clockwise. Which property of the square remains unchanged?

    Answer: Length of its sides

    Rotation is a rigid transformation, so the side lengths (and all distances) are preserved even though orientation changes.

  5. If FISH is coded as GJTI, how is BIRD coded?

    Answer: CJSE

    Each letter is shifted forward by 1 in the alphabet: B→C, I→J, R→S, D→E, giving CJSE.

  6. Which figure does NOT belong: triangle, pentagon, hexagon, circle, octagon?

    Answer: Circle

    Triangle, pentagon, hexagon, and octagon are all polygons with straight sides, while a circle has no straight sides or vertices.

  7. In a certain code, 'sky is blue' = '4 7 2' and 'blue ocean wide' = '2 9 6'. What is the code for 'blue'?

    Answer: 2

    'Blue' appears in both phrases, and '2' is the only code common to both sets, so 'blue' = 2.
