Non Verbal Reasoning - Figure Matrix - Discussion

According to me 1 is the ans bcoz inverting upper part of the 1st fig makes 3rd part.

@Renu

You are wrong. The given answer is correct only.

Carefully watch the sequence in Vertical Direction.

Do 'Vertical-Flip' the 'Top-Half' of the given image to obtain the answer.

Hope this will help you. Have a nice day!

But by inverting first part vertcaly in last case we won't get given figure?

For me answer A is correct also, according to the logic that in the 3rd row, the figure consists of copying the same lower semi-figure again above it, which will lead to case A (as it is consisting of two typical parallelograms.

@shrief

The given answer is correct.

Watch the naming of the sequence 1 and 2

In the 3rd row, the figure consists of two parts one is the copying 2 and other is copying of 1 but it is inverted about the horizontal axis...

So coming to find ans part keep copying of 2 as it is and invert the copy of 1. u will get option 3 as answer.

I hope u understood this.

While C is a correct version if we complicate the pictures by an inverse relationship there is an a less complex method.
Consider shapes labeled '1' as a function and those labeled '2' as function.
These is no necesery relationship between '1' and '2'.

The horizontal shapes with '2' remained the same from line to line.

The middle horizontal line gives a linear model that is also seen in the top horizontal row.

Viewed vertically answer 'c' is apparent though 'c' does not account for the horizontal.

I assume this is like x^2, neither answer alone solves the equation.

Further if each shape is on a plane which is not rotated clockwise, always depicting a 2d shape, while shifted in 3d space at 90` on the z axis with leave no visible footprint even should we draw a line to represent it laying on its back as it were.

One way or another there are 2 of the possible answers listed.

This just seems like a poorly made question. If you follow the logic from left to right the correct answer will be 1 as all rows follow the same pattern.

However if you follow the logic from top to bottom (which is rarely done in these sorts of questions) then the correct answer is C.

In addition there doesn't seem to be any rules here that would make the first solution more logical than the second.

There can be derived rule of rotating the upper shape by 180 degrees, which leads to same results as mirroring the semicircle and the trapezoid, but to different result when applied to the parallelogram. There is no way to exclude any of these two possible rules (mirroring and rotation), which means there are two possible correct answers (C when mirroring, A when rotating) , hence the problem is not valid (if unique solution is a condition).

In my opinion, why we should not consider row because there is not mentioning we consider column and in that case we get a option please give reply.

I also think 1 is the correct answer. In each of the other two set, the final result is obtained by turning portion 1, 180 degrees and then setting it on top of portion 2. If you do this, A (1), is the result. Unfortunately, answer C can also be arrived at if the shape is flipped to make a mirror image.

In order to improve this problem, one of the other sets which is shown in entirety needs to be asymmetrical from left to right, so that it is clear that the final result was obtained via flipping for a mirror image rather than rotating the shape.
