The total squares is in the give figure is 1² + 2² + 3² + 4² = 30

In the figure the simplest Triangles are GLK, DLJ, DJM,HMN,QRE,IRA,IPA, and FPO is the 8 triangle

and another is BDO,CDQ,DLM, PRA, KFI, NEI, HJI, GJI,DKI, and DNI is the 10 triangle

and another is DIE, DFI, DOA, DQA, and GHI is the 5 triangle

and DCA, DBA is the 2 triangle and DEF and ABC so that according to the figure the total no. of triangle is
8 + 10 + 5 + 2 + 1 + 1
= 27

From the final arrangement, we get T faces Q.
Hence, Option C is correct.
References:
Q sits second to the right of P.
Inferences:
From the above reference, we get two different cases:
In case 1, P sits at the corner or in the middle of the side of the table.

References:
R is not an immediate neighbor of P.
R faces inside.
R sits third to the left of W.
Inferences:
From the above references, we get different cases for R, in case 1(a) in which R faces P and in case 1(b) R faces Q.

References:
T sits third to the left of U.
V sits second to the left of U.
Inferences:
So, from this case 1(b) and case 2 will be eliminated as there is no possible place for V in these cases after placing U and T. Hence, we get our final arrangement in which S sits on the immediate left of P and V sits on the immediate right of R.
Final arrangement:

From the common explanation, we get the immediate neighbour of P and M is Q.

Hence, Option C is correct.

Final Arrangement:

Common Explanation:

References:

M is sitting fourth to the right of N.

P is sitting second to the left of N.

Inferences:

From the above reference, we get the following arrangements:

References:

Q is sitting third to the right of S.

Inferences:

From the above reference, we get two different cases:

Case 1:

Case 2:

References:

S is not sitting beside P.

T is sitting second to the left of O.

O is not sitting beside M.

Inferences:

So, from this case 1 will be eliminated as S is not sitting beside P.

Thus, the final arrangement,

To solve the analogy problem where the pattern needs to be identified, let’s break it down step-by-step:

The analogy given is: 16 : 56 :: 32 : ?

We need to find the relationship between the numbers 16 and 56 and then apply that relationship to 32 to find the missing number.

1. Find the relationship between 16 and 56:

   • Step 1: Check the operations or patterns. Consider possible operations like addition, subtraction, multiplication, or division.

   • Step 2: Test if multiplication could be a pattern:

     16×3.5=56

     This works as:

     16×3.5=56

     Thus, multiplying by 3.5 seems to be the pattern.

2. Apply the same pattern to 32:

   32×3.5=112

   Therefore, according to this pattern, the number that replaces the question mark should be 112.

3. Verify the other options:

   • 96: This is much larger than expected.
   • 112: Also too large.
   • 121: Similarly, too large.
   • 128: While close, it’s not the result from our multiplication pattern.

Hence, the correct answer is:

112

In this analogy, subtract the position number of each alphabet from 26.
M ⇒ 26 - 13 = 13
O ⇒ 26 - 15 = 11
⇒ MO : 13 11
Similarly,
H ⇒ 26 - 8 = 18
J ⇒ 26 - 10 = 16
So, right answer is 18 16

All these are planets.

Hence, option A is correct.

As short form of 'Mountain' is 'Hill' similarly 'Tank' is short form of 'River'.

Let X and Y be two buses. Bus X travels the PA, AB, BC, CD.
Now, AD = BC = 25 km.
So, PD = PA +AD = 50km.
Bus Y travels 35km upto E.
Distance between two buses = PQ – (PD + QE)
= [150 – (50 + 35)] = 65 km.

From the final arrangement, we can say that Q sits second to the right of the one who sits opposite to R.
Hence, Option C is correct.
References:
Q sits second to the right of P.
Inferences:
From the above reference, we get two different cases:
In case 1, P sits at the corner or in the middle of the side of the table.

References:
R is not an immediate neighbor of P.
R faces inside.
R sits third to the left of W.
Inferences:
From the above references, we get different cases for R, in case 1(a) in which R faces P and in case 1(b) R faces Q.

References:
T sits third to the left of U.
V sits second to the left of U.
Inferences:
So, from this case 1(b) and case 2 will be eliminated as there is no possible place for V in these cases after placing U and T. Hence, we get our final arrangement in which S sits on the immediate left of P and V sits on the immediate right of R.
Final arrangement:

M is son-in-law of K, brother-in-law of J. It means K is the father/mother of M’s wife. J is brother of M’s wife. Hence J is K’s son.

Preparing the family tree using the following symbol:

According to the given information,

Hence, Q is the grandmother of S.
