Question DetailShow Details

Question 1Show Details

Answer: (A)
This set is all about colours and sides. In Set A, the total number of sides on the white shapes in each item is equal to the total number of sides on the black shapes. In Set B, the total number of sides on the white shapes is twice the total number of sides on the black shapes. The size, arrangement or type of shapes is irrelevant. Our first test shape includes white shapes with a total of 8 sides, and black shapes with a total of 8 sides, so it fits into Set A.

Question 2Show Details

Answer: (C)
This test shape includes a black hexagon and pentagon, with a total of 11 sides, and a white diamond and triangle, with a total of 7 sides. Thus it fits into neither set, and the answer is (C).

Question 3Show Details

Answer: (C)
Counting the sides here, we find a total of 8 sides on the black shapes and 4 sides on the white shape. This test shape fits into neither set, so again the answer is (C).

Question 4Show Details

Answer: (A)
This test shape contains two pentagons, one white, one black. As they have the same number of sides, the answer is (A).

Question 5Show Details

Answer: (B)
The final test shape in this set is the least like the rest of the lot, presenting two black triangles and four white triangles. The black shapes have a total of 6 sides, and the white shapes a total of 12 sides. Therefore this test shape fits into Set B.
