Test Level 1: Abstract Reasoning - Question 1
Save

Directions: In the following question, five different problem figures are provided. Successive problem figures follow a certain pattern. You have to identify the next figure to continue the sequence from the given answer figures (A, B, C, D and E).

Detailed Solution: Question 1

The elements in boxes 1, 3 and 5 are same and are moving one space (one space is equal to half side of box) in anticlockwise direction, whereas the elements in  boxes 2, 4 are same and are moving one space in clockwise direction.
Hence, follow the same pattern, option (2) is correct.

Test Level 1: Abstract Reasoning - Question 2

Directions: In the following question, five different problem figures are provided. Successive problem figures follow a certain pattern. You have to identify the next figure to continue the sequence from the given answer figures (A, B, C, D and E).

Detailed Solution: Question 2

All the elements starting from top left are moving one space (equal to one side of box) in anticlockwise direction in each step and element that reaches lower left corner is flipped horizontally.
Hence, (4) is the answer.

Directions: In the following question, five different problem figures are provided. Successive problem figures follow a certain pattern. You have to identify the next figure to continue the sequence from the given answer figures (A, B, C, D and E).

Detailed Solution: Question 4

The columns as a whole are moving in clockwise direction, and in the column that reaches the extreme right, the top and bottom elements interchange their positions with each other and the middle element is replaced by a new element; and the same process is being repeated.
So, answer figure (D) is the correct answer.

Test Level 1: Abstract Reasoning - Question 5
Save

Directions: In the following question, five different problem figures are provided. Successive problem figures follow a certain pattern. You have to identify the next figure to continue the sequence from the given answer figures (A, B, C, D and E).

Detailed Solution: Question 5

Inner shape of 1 is the outer shape of 2 (with 2 diagonals), and 3.
Inner shape of 3 is the outer shape of 4 (with 3 diagonals), and 5.
Inner shape of 5 is the outer shape of 6 (with 4 diagonals), and 7. 
Therefore, option 2 is the correct answer.

Test Level 1: Abstract Reasoning - Question 6
Save

Directions: In the following question, five different problem figures are provided. Successive problem figures follow a certain pattern. You have to identify the next figure to continue the sequence from the given answer figures (A, B, C, D and E).

Detailed Solution: Question 6

The box as a whole is flipped vertically and horizontally alternately. In each step, a line segment from alternate end disappears.
So, answer figure (C) is the correct answer.

Test Level 1: Abstract Reasoning - Question 7
Save

Directions: In the following question, five different problem figures are provided. Successive problem figures follow a certain pattern. You have to identify the next figure to continue the sequence from the given answer figures (A, B, C, D and E).

Detailed Solution: Question 7

The patterns given below are followed alternately:

So, answer figure (B) is the correct answer.

Test Level 1: Abstract Reasoning - Question 8
Save

Directions: In the following question, five different problem figures are provided. Successive problem figures follow a certain pattern. You have to identify the next figure to continue the sequence from the given answer figures (A, B, C, D and E).

Detailed Solution: Question 8

The element is moving 3 spaces (one space is equal to half side of box) clockwise and flips horizontally; in next step, the element is moving 5 spaces anticlockwise and flips vertically. These two steps are followed alternatively.
So, answer figure (D) is the correct answer.

Test Level 1: Abstract Reasoning - Question 9
Save

Directions: In the following question, five different problem figures are provided. Successive problem figures follow a certain pattern. You have to identify the next figure to continue the sequence from the given answer figures (A, B, C, D and E).

Detailed Solution: Question 9

Similar box appears in every third step and each time a box reappears, it gets vertically inverted.
Hence, figure(A) is the correct answer.

Test Level 1: Abstract Reasoning - Question 10
Save

Directions: In the following question, five different problem figures are provided. Successive problem figures follow a certain pattern. You have to identify the next figure to continue the sequence from the given answer figures (A, B, C, D and E).

Detailed Solution: Question 10

The box is being flipped horizontally and vertically alternately. Moreover, in every step, one extra part is shaded.

Test Level 1: Abstract Reasoning - Question 11

Directions: Select a suitable figure from the answer figures that would replace the question mark (?).

Detailed Solution: Question 11

The elements are moving in the following pattern: 

Further, the box as a whole is flipped horizontally.
Hence, (4) is the correct answer.

Test Level 1: Abstract Reasoning - Question 12
Save

Directions: Select a suitable figure from the answer figures that would replace the question mark (?).

Detailed Solution: Question 12

The total number of parts in which the outer shape is divided is equal to the sides of inner shape and diagonals are hidden by the inner shape.
Hence, (4) is the correct answer.

Test Level 1: Abstract Reasoning - Question 13
Save

Directions: Select a suitable figure from the answer figures that would replace the question mark (?).

Detailed Solution: Question 13

The box as a whole is flipped vertically, the elements at extreme ends are further flipped horizontally and their positions are interchanged with each other.
Hence, (1) is the correct answer.

Test Level 1: Abstract Reasoning - Question 14

Directions: In this question, the first two problem figures bear a certain relationship to each other. The same relationship exists between the next two problem figures, out of which one is missing. Find the missing figure from the answer figures (A, B, C, D and E).

Detailed Solution: Question 15

Former is the water image of the latter.
Hence, (3) is the answer.

Test Level 1: Abstract Reasoning - Question 16
Save

Directions: In this question, the first two problem figures bear a certain relationship to each other. The same relationship exists between the next two problem figures, out of which one is missing. Find the missing figure from the answer figures (A, B, C, D and E).

Detailed Solution: Question 16

The inner element enlarges to form the outer shape but with one less side and the outer element shrinks to form the inner shape but with one less side. Moreover, shaded parts become unshaded and vice versa.
Hence, figure (D) is the correct option.

Test Level 1: Abstract Reasoning - Question 17
