Question

Identify the correct figure to complete the sequence :

• A.

  

• B.

  

• C.

  

• D.

  

Hint:

Track three things in each box: the shape of the sections (triangles or rectangles), the number of sections (2, 3, 2, 3) and the number of vertical lines on the right (0, 1, 1, 2).

Answer 1

The Correct Option is A

Study the three given boxes.
Box 1: two triangular sections, no vertical line.
Box 2: three triangular sections, one vertical line on the right.
Box 3: a rectangle divided into two sections, one vertical line on the right.
Pattern: the number of sections alternates 2, 3, 2, 3; the sections are triangles in the first two boxes and rectangles in the next two; the number of vertical lines on the right goes 0, 1, 1, 2 (one more line every second box).
So the fourth box must have a rectangle divided into three sections with two vertical lines on the right.
Option (2) has three lines on the left, option (3) has three lines on the right, option (4) has two lines but on the left. Option (1) has three rectangular sections and two vertical lines on the right.
Answer: (1)
