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.

@All.
I initially thought C was wrong too.
It's very correct. Here, we all are disputing that is because the previous images are straight and not slant. In a situation where it is bent, our inverted answer must be the opposite of the given letter.
I hope this helps.
Thank you.

@All
The given answer Option C is correct. No doubt in that.
In problem figure (E), take the top right image like 'Z' and flip it vertically. You will get the image same as in the bottom left image of answer figures 3 and 4.
From this info we surely tell that answer should be the answer figure either 3 or 4.
Not we can eliminate answer figure 4. Because, if the upper right element is 'S' then bottom left image should be like '↑' (you can verify it from problem figure-A).
Therefore Option C (Answer figure-3) is the correct answer.
I hope this explanation may help you. Have a nice day!

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.
