Exercise : Grouping of Images - Section 2
Directions to Solve

In each of the following questions, group the given figures into three classes using each figure only once.


6.

Group the given figures into three classes using each figure only once.

1,7,9 ; 2,3,6 ; 4,5,8
1,2,9 ; 3,4,6 ; 5,7,8
1,6,8 ; 2,4,7 ; 3,5,9
1,7,8 ; 2,9,3 ; 6,4,5
Answer: Option
Explanation:

1, 7, 9 contain two similar elements one inside the other but not touching each other.

2, 3, 6 contain two similar elements one inside the other and both touching each other.

4, 5, 8 are divided into equal parts by straight lines emerging from the centre.


7.

Group the given figures into three classes using each figure only once.

1,4,7 ; 2,5,9 ; 3,8,6
2,6,9 ; 1,4,7 ; 5,8,3
1,4,7 ; 2,3,6 ; 5,8,9
3,5,1 ; 4,7,8 ; 6,2,9
Answer: Option
Explanation:

5, 8, 9 are objects having both base as well as upper lid.

2, 3, 6 are objects having base but not upper lid.

1, 4, 7 tare objects which have neither a base nor an upper lid attached to them.


8.

Group the given figures into three classes using each figure only once.

1,5,8 ; 2,6,7 ; 3,4,9
1,5,7 ; 2,6,8 ; 3,4,5
1,5,8 ; 2,4,7 ; 3,6,9
1,5,8 ; 2,6,9 ; 3,4,7
Answer: Option
Explanation:

3, 6, 9 are geometrical figures containing line segments (the number of these line segments is half the number of sides in the figure) parallel to the sides of the figure.

1, 5, 8 consist of a circle and a triangle intersecting it. The triangle is also divided into two equal parts by a straight line.

2, 4, 7 are all funnel shaped figures.


9.

Group the given figures into three classes using each figure only once.

2,4,7 ; 1,6,9 ; 3,5,8
1,3,5 ; 2,6,7 ; 4,8,9
1,5,7 ; 2,3,6 ; 4,8,9
1,3,5 ; 2,4,7 ; 6,8,9
Answer: Option
Explanation:

1, 6, 9 are figures which are half shaded by slanting lines.

2, 4, 7 are all divided into equal parts (either three or four parts) by straight lines and also have a black circle at the centre.

3, 5, 8 have similar designs and have their four corners shaded black.


10.

Group the given figures into three classes using each figure only once.

1,2,3 ; 4,5,8 ; 6,7,9
1,5,6 ; 2,3,4 ; 7,8,9
1,3,5 ; 2,4,8 ; 6,7,9
1,4,7 ; 2,5,8 ; 3,6,9
Answer: Option
Explanation:

1, 5, 6 have two similar elements, one inside the other.

2, 3, 4 contain straight lines each dividing, the figure into two equal parts.

7, 8, 9 have one element placed inside a different element.
