Discussion Forum : Series - Section 1 (Q.No. 1)
Directions to Solve
Each of the following questions consists of five figures marked A, B, C, D and E called the Problem Figures followed by five other figures marked 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 called the Answer Figures. Select a figure from amongst the Answer Figures which will continue the same series as established by the five Problem Figures.
1.
Select a figure from amongst the Answer Figures which will continue the same series as established by the five Problem Figures.
Problem Figures: Answer Figures:

(A) (B) (C) (D) (E) (1) (2) (3) (4) (5)
Answer: Option
Explanation:
In each step, element at the upper-right position gets enlarged, inverts vertically and reaches the lower-left corner; the existing element at the lower-left position, is lost and a new small element appears at the upper-right position.

To find the next figure in the sequence of the Problem Figures (A to E), let's analyze the pattern:
Orientation and Progression:
Each figure seems to involve angular or directional transformation. The figures are transforming in a consistent angular pattern:
(A) is a single upward arrow.
(B) is a curved shape rotating to the right.
(C) is an angular shape facing right.
(D) is upward again, but more complex.
(E) is a zigzag with more corners.
This suggests a gradual increase in angular complexity and possibly alternating directions.
Trend:
The shapes are becoming more complex step-by-step.
There's a consistent use of sharp angles and directional changes.
Matching with Answer Figures:
Let's compare the possible answer choices:
(1): A zig-zag starting left and pointing down.
(2): A symmetric zig-zag with increasing turns.
(3): A zig-zag starting down, then left.
(4): A zig-zag with similar complexity as (E), but reflected.
(5): A zig-zag similar to (E) but simplified.
Among these, option (3) continues the angular pattern, matching the directional and structural complexity increase seen in figures A to E.
The Correct Answer: (3)
It follows the angular progression logically and matches the complexity and structure trend.

The new image always comes from the upper side, so the correct answer is C, not D, which has S on the upper side, which is already in problem 2.

Not D, because the upper element is not new in d.
S symbol already came.
S symbol already came.
