NVR Figure Matrix Answer Key

The document provides explanations for the answers to 10 practice and 10 extra questions related to identifying patterns across sets of 3 figures. For each question, the explanation summarizes the pattern identified across the figures in each row or column. The patterns include things like: one figure being a combination of parts from the other two; figures transforming into one another through additions, subtractions, or rearrangements of their parts; and consistent changes in the number or types of components across the figures.

Figure Matrix Answer Key

Practice Questions

1. Option D

Explanation:

The third figure in each row comprises of parts which are not common to the first two figures.

2. Option

Explanation:

In each row, the second figure is obtained from the first figure by adding two mutually perpendicular
line segments at the centre and the third figure is obtained from the first figure by adding four
circles outside the main figure.

3. Option A

Explanation:

In each row, the third figure comprises of a black circle and only those line segments which are not
common to the first and the second figures.

4. Option C

Explanation:

In each column, the second figure (middle figure) is obtained by removing the upper part of the first
figure (uppermost figure) and the third figure (lowermost figure) is obtained by vertically inverting
the upper part of the first figure.

5. Option C

Explanation:

The third figure in each row comprises of the parts common to the first two figures.

6. Option B

Explanation:

The third figure in each row comprises of parts which are not common to the first two figures.

7. Option A

Explanation:

The number of components in each row either increases or decreases from left to right. In the third
row, it increases.

8. Option A

Explanation:

In each row, the second figure is obtained from the first figure by increasing the number of smaller
elements by one and the third figure is obtained from the second figure by increasing the number of
smaller elements by one.
9. Option C

Explanation:

The third figure in each row comprises of parts which are not common to the first two figures.

10. Option A

Explanation:

Each row (as well as each column) contains a figure consisting of a circle and two line segments, a
figure consisting of a circle and three line segments and a figure consisting of a circle and four line
segments.

Extra Questions

1. Option A

Explanation:

In each row, the second figure is obtained from the first figure by reversing the direction of the RHS
arrow and the third figure is obtained from the second figure by reversing the direction of both the
arrows.

2. Option B

Explanation:

In each row, the figures are getting laterally inverted in each step. The number of components or the
quantities are either increasing or decreasing from left to right sequentially.

3. Option C

Explanation:

The second figure is obtained from the first figure by moving the line segment to the opposite side of
the square boundary and replacing it with two similar line segments. Also, the element in the lower-
left corner gets replaced by two similar elements - one placed in the upper-left and the other placed
in the lower-right corner.

4. Option D

Explanation:

In each row, there are 3 types of shadings of circles - a circle is unshaded, another circle has its right
half shaded with vertical lines and yet another circle has its upper half shaded with horizontal lines.
There are three specified positions of the two triangles each of which is used only once in a row.
Also, two of the figures in each row have one triangle shaded.

5. Option C

Explanation:

In each row, the third figure is a collection of the common elements (line segments) of the first and
the second figures.

6. Option B
Explanation:

The two parts of the first figure are rearranged and joined along the longer sides. The common side
is then lost to form the second figure.

7. Option C

Explanation:

The second figure is a part of the first figure (but is not exactly the same as the first figure).

8. Option A

Explanation:

In each row, the central part of the first figure rotates either 90o CW or 90o ACW to form the central
part of the second figure and the central part of the first figure rotates through 180o to form the
central part of the third figure. Also, in each row, there are 3 types of side elements - rectangles,
circles and triangles.

9. Option B

Explanation:

In each column, the third figure (lowermost figure) contains one less number of hexagons as the first
figure (uppermost figure) and the same number of trees as the second figure (middle figure).

10. Option B

Explanation:

There are 3 types of faces, 3 types of bodies, 3 types of hands and 3 types of legs, each of which is
used only once in a single row. So, the features which have not been used in the first two figures of
the third row would combine to produce the missing figure.
