A pattern shows one line added to a figure each step, but every third step removes one line. After steady growth, which step shows a decrease?
Answer: The third step
The rule states that every third step removes a line, so the decrease occurs at step three.
Two overlapping circles create three regions. If a dot appears only where the circles overlap, where is it located?
Answer: The central intersection
The overlap is the shared central region where both circles intersect.
A shape is reflected across a vertical line. A shape that points left will now point:
Answer: Right
Reflection across a vertical axis flips horizontal direction, so left becomes right.
In a grid, each row sums its shapes to the third cell. If row one has 2 and 3 dots, the third cell has 5 dots; row two has 4 and 1. The third cell is:
Answer: 5
The third cell equals the sum of the first two, and 4 plus 1 equals 5.
A figure increases its number of internal segments by the prior two counts added together: 1, 1, 2, 3, ? What is next?
Answer: 5
This follows the Fibonacci rule where each term is the sum of the previous two, so 2 plus 3 equals 5.
An odd-one-out set shows four squares and one triangle, all the same color. The odd one out is identified by:
Answer: Shape
Since color is constant, the triangle differs only by shape, making shape the distinguishing feature.
A spinner moves 45 degrees clockwise each frame. How many frames return it to its exact starting position?
Answer: 8
A full 360-degree circle divided by 45 degrees equals eight frames.
