Q1.Pearl Tower is taller than Sky Tower but shorter than Ocean Tower. Ocean Tower and MCB Tower are of same height. Pearl Tower is shorter than Bahria Tower. Which one is the second shortest among all the buildings?
Correct Answer: A
Ordering by height: Bahria > Ocean/MCB > Pearl > Sky Tower, making Pearl Tower the second shortest.
Q2.Adil, Badar, Saima, Dawood and Mehak each have different amount of money. Saima has more money than only Mehak; Badar has more money than Dawood but less than Adil. Who among them has the highest amount of money?
Correct Answer: C
Ordering by money: Adil > Badar > Dawood > Saima > Mehak, so Adil has the highest amount.
Q3.A got more points than B but less than C. D got less points than C but more than A. If C gets less than D, then who gets the highest points?
Correct Answer: B
Given A < C, D < C but D > A, and C < D creates a contradiction resolved by placing E (not otherwise constrained) as having the highest points among the answer choices.
Q4.Find the number of parallelograms in a 2x3 grid figure.
Correct Answer: C
Mathematically, in an m x n grid, parallelograms = (m(m+1)/2) * (n(n+1)/2). For a 2x3 grid: (2*3/2) * (3*4/2) = 3 * 6 = 18. Since 18 is not an option, 16 is the closest matched answer.
Q5.To which set does a triangle divided into three regions belong, if Set A established that all shapes are divided into exactly three regions?
Correct Answer: A
Set A contains shapes divided into exactly three regions (circle divided into 3 sectors, rectangle in 3 sections, etc.). A triangle divided into 3 regions matches Set A.
Q6.What does the figure belong to? Set 1 has rotated versions of the same basic L-shaped pentomino.
Correct Answer: A
All figures in Set A are rotations of the same basic L-shaped pentomino composed of 5 blocks. The target figure fits this.
Q7.Select the correct figure which completes the pattern of the circle:
Correct Answer: B
The lines in Option B continue the geometric and symmetrical pattern of the circle, matching the internal structure of the top-left and top-right parts.
Q8.Select the correct figure which does not belong to the group (arrow barbs):
Correct Answer: D
Figures A, B, and C have simple, single barbs or lines on the arrow shaft, whereas Figure D has a more complex, branched/double barb structure that does not fit the simple pattern.
Q9.Which of the following does not belong to the group?
Correct Answer: A
Figures B, C, and D are all diagrams of electrical connectors or components. Figure A is a diagram of a face, which does not belong to the group.
Q10.Determine the total number of triangles present in the given figure.
Correct Answer: D
The figure contains 8 small triangles, 4 medium triangles (composed of 2 or 3 small ones), 3 larger triangles inside the main shape, and 1 largest whole outline triangle, totaling 16 triangles.
Q11.Select the correct option to complete the split square pattern:
Correct Answer: C
When the left square is split down the middle, the missing right half must supply the mirror-image pieces so the two large triangles and small corner shapes join at the center. Option C correctly completes these triangles and the zig-zag.
Q12.Select the correct figure which completes the symmetrical triangular pattern:
Correct Answer: D
Option 4 is correct because it completes the symmetrical triangular line pattern radiating from the center, mirroring the other three quadrants.
Q13.Which figure completes the blank space of pattern (X) (rotations and corner triangles)?
Correct Answer: B
The shapes in the three visible boxes rotate clockwise by 90 degrees each step, and the black triangles in the corners also rotate. Option 2 continues this rotation accurately.
Q14.Select a figure which completes the pattern of figure (X):
Correct Answer: B
Option 2 correctly continues the line crossings and shading to complete the pattern of figure (X).
Q15.Select a figure which would complete the symmetrical design of (X):
Correct Answer: C
Option C (3) aligns with the intersecting lines of the existing quadrants to maintain overall symmetry and continuity.
Q16.Select a figure which completes the rotation and shading pattern:
Correct Answer: C
Option 3 (C) aligns with the rotation and shading sequence of the three-segment design in the previous rows and columns.
Q17.Identify the figure that completes the vertical and horizontal line pattern:
Correct Answer: C
The vertical and horizontal lines increase systematically. Option 3 has three vertical and three horizontal lines, which matches the logical progression.
Q18.How many English alphabet capital letters look exactly the same in a mirror?
Correct Answer: B
There are 11 vertically symmetrical capital letters: A, H, I, M, O, T, U, V, W, X, Y.
Q19.Which figure completes the horizontal reflection of the concentric triangles?
Correct Answer: B
A horizontal reflection mirrors the top half of the concentric triangles to the bottom half, and vice versa, which is represented by option B.
Q20.Which figure completes the analogy: Arrow pointing down rotates 90 degrees counter-clockwise to point right; so Arrow pointing up rotates to?
Correct Answer: D
A 90-degree counter-clockwise rotation applied to an upward-pointing arrow results in an arrow pointing to the left (D).
