removed to form the next figure.
2. (c) From figure (1) to (2), the black dots remain at the same place while the rest figure is
rotated by 180∘. Similarly, from figure (3) to (4), dots will remain at their places while
the rest figure will be rotated by 180∘.
3. (a) In every successive figure, a line from both the triangles is removing.
4. (d) In every successive figure, two circles in the upper box are increasing and one circle
in the lower box is decreasing.
5. (d) In first step, one line from left side is removed. In second step, one line from right
side is removed. The process is repeated in the subsequent steps.
6. (b) From figure (1) to (2), two more boves get shaded in clockwise direction, then from
figure (2) to (3) one box at the anti-clockwise end gets unshaded. The same process is
repeated.

clockwise direction. Also every time a line is also added to the figure.
11. (c) Here, two patterns are going consecutively. In figures 1 →3 → 5. figure moves 90∘
clockwise. In figure 2−4 , figure moves 90∘ clockwise. So, figure 4 moves 90∘ clockwise
to continue the sequence.

12. (c) The half arrow in the middle moves 90∘ clockwise. 'L' moves step in anti-clockwise

direction and it rotates 90∘ anti-clockwise in each alternate figure.
13. (d) Here, in each figure one line, two lines and then three lines are added. This process is
repeated from figure (4) onwards.
14. (b) There are two different series. One series contains one symbol and other series
contains two symbols. In both the series, symbols move 1 step in clockwise direction
and each time symbols are replaced by new symbols. The series having two elements
contains one symbol same as the previous figure of one element series.
15. (e) Here, elements move from bottom to middle, middle to top, top to middle and then
middle to bottom. This process repeats. Also, in first step, elements at both the ends
interchange their positions and the remaining element gets inverted vertically. In next
step, the element at left end shifts at the right end and also gets inverted vertically. In
 third step, all the three elements are inverted vertically. Now, this process is repeated
from next step.
16. (a) In first step, the first and second symbols (counting in clockwise direction)
interchange their positions and in the second step, the first and the third symbols
interchange their positions. This goes on alternately. The remaining symbol moves to
the vacant position and gets replaced by a new symbol in each step.
17. (d) All the arrows are pointing in four different directions.
18. (d) Both the elements move one step in clockwise direction. The half arrow rotates 90∘
anti-clockwise. The semi-circular gets laterally inverted in each successive steps.
19. (d) From figure (1) to (3), the figure is inverted and one leaf is added to one of its side.
Also from figure (3) to (5), the figure is again inverted and one leaf is added to its other
side. Same process follows from figure (2) to (4) and from figure (4) to the answer
figure.
20. (e) Here, figure (1) is similar to (4) while figure (2) is similar to (5) except that the latter is
∘
90 clockwise rotated form of the first. So, answer figure must be similar to figure (3)
after 90∘ clockwise rotation.
21. (c) In each of the subsequent figure, one design is added in a set order and the designs
rotate respectively 90∘ anti-clockwise and 45 ∘ clockwise alternately.

23. (b) From problem figure (1) to (2) the innermost and outermost designs interchange
their positions. Similar changes occur from problem figure (3) to (4) and from (5) to the
answer figure.
24. (d) Main design in figure (5) is same as in figure (1), therefore, the main design for
answer figure will be same as in figure (2). One line is added to the base of the main
figure after every two figures.
25. (a) The central figure in figure (5) is same as in figure (2). Hence, it will be same in
answer figure as it is in figure (3). The outer figures in figure (5) is same as in figure (1).
Hence, in the answer figure, it will be same as it is in figure (2).
26. (c) In each of the successive figures, a new sign is formed at the top left position and the
symbol it replaces comes in the middle.
The sign at the middle position comes at the middle top position and the sign at the
midle top position comes to right top position. The same process is repeated in the
successive figures.
27. (c) Figures change in such a way that dot lies in the space common to circle and triangle
in one step and it lies in the space common to triangle and rectangle in next step. This
process is repeated in the subsequent figures.
28. (e) The pattern is as follows

RS ¿ Reverse same design,

RN = Reverse new design.

then it will move 2 steps. Remaining one diagram placed at middle moves from centre
2
to bottom, bottom to top, top to centre and then again centre to bottom. This process
continues for the successive steps.
30. (e) In the first step, the corner elements shift one step clockwise while the middle left
and middle right elements interchange their places. In the next step, all the elements
shift one step upwards in a cyclic order and the same process repeats. The shading of
the main figure shifts one step clockwise in each step.
31. (c) In the first step, the corner elements shift one step anti-clockwise, the middle left
and middle right elements interchange their places, while the central element remains
at its place.

middle right goes to the middle left and the middle right is replaced by a new one. The
same process repeats for successive steps.
32. (c) In the first step, the left column elements shift downwards in a cyclic order while the
right column elements shift upward in a cyclic order. In the next step, the elements of
the upper box shift clockwise while elements of the lower box shift anti-clockwise in a
cyclic order. The process is repeated for successive steps.
33. (a) In question figures, for each of the subsequent figure, three outer corner elements
shift one step in a cyclic order while the three corresponding inner elements also shift in
 the same way. The remaining one inner and outer elements interchange their places.
This process repeats from figure (3) to (4) and (5) to answer figure.
34. (e) In the first step, the upper middle element shifts to the middle left, middle left to the
lower left and then from lower left to the upper middle while the remaining four shift
one step clockwise in a cyclic order. In the next step, the middle row elements shift from
left to right in a cyclic order, while the remaining four elements shift one step clockwise.
The same process repeats.
35. (c) In the sequence, the middle element is interchanged by one of the four surrounding
elements and two of four surrounding elements interchange their places. Also a new
element is replaces one of the surrounding elements everytime.
36. (c) In each subsequent figure, the series of symbols move 45 ∘ anti-clockwise. With
reference to the position of symbols in the original series, from question figure (1) to (2)
the upper two elements at corners interchange their positions. Also, the two elements
at the lower end interchange their positions. From question figure (2) to (3), the lower
most element gets shifted to the uppermost position in the series. Then, the whole
process repeats.
37. (a) From figure 1 to 2 → S and O and Δ and R interchange their places.
From figure 2 to 3 → K and O and and T interchange their places.
From figure 3 to 4 →O and Z and * and Δ interchange their places.

Following the same pattern from figure 5 to 6 → O and T and K and will interchange
their places.

(1) to (2), there is a cyclic movement among all the elements except top element of the
 series, From figure (2) to (3), the elements at both ends of the series interchange their
places and the middle element is replaced by a new element.
41. (e) In each subsequent figure, one design is inverted and the other two designs rotate
∘
45 clockwise and anti-clockwise, respectively.
42. (c) Changes from figure (1) to (2) takes place as shown in the diagram. (•) represents the
element which is replaced by a new element. The same process is repeated for
subsequent figures but the changing pattern is rotated 90∘ clockwise each time as
shown below.

43. (c) In each step, elements shift one step clockwise. In the first step both the end
elements are replaced by new ones while in the next step, the remaining three elements
are replaced. The whole process repeats.
44. (d) In the first step, the upper left and the middle right elements interchange their
places, so do the upper right and the middle left.
The remaining three elements shift one step clockwise. In the next step, the lower left
and lower right elements are replaced by new ones, while the remaining five shift one
step anti-clockwise in a cyclic order. The same process repeats for the subsequent steps.
45. (d) In each step, the upper middle elements rotates by 45 ∘ clockwise and the lower
middle element rotates by 45 ∘ anti-clockwise. Among the middle row elements, the
elements in two pairs interchange their places while the 5 th element is replaced by a

goes to lowermost, the other elements shift one step upward and the element reaching
the uppermost position is replaced by a new one.
59. (d) In the problem figures, there comes a circle and a square at the centre alternately.
So, in the 7th figure, there must be a circle at the centre. Also, the direction of arrows is
same in figure (1) and (4), (2) and (5). (3) and (6). So, the direction of arrows in figure (7)
