By similarity, we mean when pictures or objects looks exactly the same as they are said tobe similar to each other. Steps to check the similarity between the pictures or objects are as follows: ‘STEP 1: Observe the given picture or object first. STEP 2: Then, check for its similar picture in the options marked as (a),(b),(c) and (d). STEP 3: The picture which is exactly the same is the answer. Now, let us understand it clearly with the help of some examples. Ena Which of the following picture is exactly similar to \f 2 (a) ud o Bs ( "Ss (a) \?

In the questions based on “analogy” a pair consisting of pictures or figures is given which are related to each other in some way and itis required to complete the second pair in the same wayas the first. To understand the concept of “analogy” some examples have been discussed below.

Steps required to find the odd shape/object are as follows: STEP 1: First, observe the given shapes/objects. STEP 2: They may be grouped on the basis of their shapes, size, properties, number etc. STEP 3: The shape/object which cannot be grouped is the answer. Now, let us understand it clearly with the help of some examples. Direction (Ex. nos. 1-4): In the following examples, out of the four options three are related to a group.
