Figure out from amongst the four alternatives as to how the pattern would appear when the transparent sheet is folded at the dotted line.
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 4
The correct answer is Option 4:
This pattern would appear when the transparent sheet is folded at the dotted line.
- The fold is along a vertical line, so the left half flips onto the right half (like a mirror).
- The top-left circle overlaps with the top-right triangle, and the bottom-left triangle overlaps with the bottom-right circle.
- During folding, the triangles reverse their direction (mirror image), while circles remain unchanged.
- The final combined figures match exactly with Option (4), where the orientations of triangles are correctly mirrored and placed inside circles.
