Which option completes the 3 × 3 figure matrix given below?
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 4
The correct answer is Option (4) →
In each row, the arrow turns 135° clockwise from one figure to the next. In row 3 the second figure shows the arrow pointing right, so the first figure, one turn earlier, shows the arrow pointing up and to the left.
Why the other options are incorrect
Option (1) — Incorrect. It is turned the wrong way: the row turns 135° clockwise each time.
Option (2) — Incorrect. It is turned through 90° instead of 135°.
Option (3) — Incorrect. It is the same as the next figure in the row; it should be turned back 135°.
