Look at figure (X). Which option figure contains figure (X) exactly, without turning it?
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 1
The correct answer is Option (1) →
Figure (X) is made of 5 straight lines. Look for the same shape, in the same size and the same way round, among the lines of each option. It can be traced in Option (1) (green lines below); the other options hold only a changed copy of it.
Option (2) — Incorrect. It contains a shape like (X) in which one line points in a different direction, so (X) cannot be traced.
Option (3) — Incorrect. It contains the shape of (X) turned through 90° clockwise (a quarter turn), not (X) as it is given.
Option (4) — Incorrect. It contains the mirror image of (X) (left and right swapped), not (X) as it is given.
