Correct answer: option D. We need to find the option that cannot be made by rotating the figure on the left. Focus on the small pointed part at the bottom of the shape. If you turn the original figure around, the pointed part will stay on the same side of the main shape relative to the rest of the figure. In option D, the pointed part is facing the opposite way, as if the shape has been flipped rather than rotated. A rotation cannot produce this, so the answer is D.

Correct answer: option C. Look carefully at the arrow in relation to the oval. In the original figure, the arrow goes around the oval in a clockwise direction. When a figure is rotated, this clockwise relationship should stay the same. Option C is different because the arrow goes around the oval in the opposite direction. This means it has been reflected, not just rotated. Therefore, the answer is C.

Correct answer: option C. Imagine turning each option so that the arrow points upwards. In the original figure, when the arrow is upright, the circle should be on the left side of the arrow. In option C, once the arrow is made upright, the circle is on the right side instead. That cannot happen by rotation alone, so option C is the answer.

Correct answer: option E. Look at the black and white parts inside the three circles. In a correct rotation, the dividing lines inside the circles should keep the same relationship to the arms of the shape. In option E, the black and white sections are facing in different directions compared with the original figure. This means option E cannot be formed just by rotating the figure. The answer is E.

Correct answer: option D. Focus on the small black triangle at the end of the rectangle. When the circle is above the rectangle, the black triangle should point to the right. In option D, when the figure is in that same position, the black triangle points the wrong way. This shows that the figure has been flipped rather than rotated. Therefore, the answer is D.

Correct answer: option B. Look at the black circle and the shape that looks like an L. In the original figure, the black circle and the L-shape are not on the same side of the box. When the whole figure is rotated, this relationship should stay the same. In option B, the black circle and the L-shape end up on the same side. This cannot happen by rotation alone, so the answer is B.

Correct answer: option D. Look at the small circle attached to the curved shape. In the original figure, the mark inside the circle is an X. If the whole figure is rotated, that mark should still match the direction it has when the figure is turned into the same position. In option D, the mark inside the circle does not match correctly; it appears as a plus-like cross instead of the expected X. So option D cannot be made by rotation alone.

Correct answer: option B. Focus on the black circle and the crossed circle. Turn the options in your mind so that the black circle is at the top-right, as it is in the original figure. In the original, the crossed circle is positioned near the lower point of the shape. In option B, when the figure is held in the same position, the crossed circle is in the wrong place. This means option B cannot be made by rotating the original figure. The answer is B.

Correct answer: option B. Look at the black part inside the oval. In the original figure, the black part leans towards the pointed corner of the outside shape. When the figure is rotated, the black part should still lean towards that pointed corner. In option B, the black part is on the wrong side and does not lean towards the pointed corner. So option B cannot be formed by rotation alone.

Correct answer: option E. Turn each option so that the straight horizontal line is at the top, just like in the original figure. In the original, the two triangular parts should be on the right and at the bottom. In option E, when the line is placed at the top, one of the triangular parts is on the left instead of the right. This means the figure has been flipped, not just rotated. Therefore, the answer is E.

Correct answer: option C. In this type of question, we need to copy the relationship between the first two figures. In the example, the large outside shape becomes a smaller shape inside the new figure. One of the inside shapes becomes the new outside shape. The remaining inside shapes also change their shading from black to white or from white to black. Using the same rule on the question figure, the outside circle should become a smaller inside shape, one of the inside shapes should become the new outer shape, and the filled shapes should swap their shading. Option C follows this pattern correctly, so the answer is C.

Correct answer: option B. Look at the first pair of figures. The lines touching the outer circle create six points, so this becomes a six-sided shape inside the answer. The central triangle becomes the large outer shape, and the outer circle becomes a small black circle inside. Now apply the same rule to the question figure. The lines touching the oval create four points, so this becomes a rectangle inside the answer. The central diamond becomes the large outer shape, and the oval becomes the small black shape inside. Option B follows this rule, so the answer is B.

Correct answer: option B. In the first pair, the large outer shape becomes a smaller central shape, and it takes on the same pattern or shading as the shape in the middle. The shape in the centre then moves to the outside. In the question figure, the outer diamond should become the central filled shape, and the circle from the centre should move to the outside. Option B shows this relationship correctly. Therefore, the answer is B.

Correct answer: option C. The first figure is turned upside down to make the second figure. At the same time, the shading changes: the black centre becomes white, and the white outer centre becomes black. We need to apply the same rule to the question figure. The figure should be turned upside down, and the black and white shading should be swapped. Option C is the only option that follows both parts of the rule correctly. The answer is C.

Correct answer: option D. In the example, the top and bottom parts move to the sides after the figure changes. The half-shaded circle also separates into two circles: the black half becomes the black circle, and the white half becomes the white circle. Applying the same rule to the question figure, the shapes must move into the same new positions, and the black and white circles must appear in the correct places. Option D is the only option that matches this pattern. Therefore, the answer is D.

Correct answer: option C. In the first pair, the whole arrangement changes position, and the shaded outside shape gives its shading to the new central shape. The small symbols also move to new positions around the centre. Using the same rule on the question figure, the grey shape should lead to a grey central shape, and the smaller symbols must move to the correct outside positions. Option C follows the same relationship most closely, so the answer is C.

Correct answer: option B. The two figures in the example are mirror images of each other. The shape has been reflected, not rotated. So we need to find the mirror image of the question figure. When the cube-like figure is reflected, the side face moves to the opposite side while keeping the same overall structure. Option B shows the correct mirror image. Therefore, the answer is B.

Correct answer: option A. In the example, the figure has been flipped upside down. The parts that were at the bottom move to the top, and the parts that were at the top move to the bottom. Apply the same flip to the question figure. Option A shows the correct upside-down version of the original figure, so the answer is A.

Correct answer: option B. In the example, the inside figure is rotated by a quarter right turn, and the black circle changes into a white circle. The position of the internal right-angled line should also change to opposite direction. Option B is the only option that follows this rule correctly. Therefore, the answer is B.

Correct answer: option B. In the example, the two small outside shapes become the two larger central shapes. The two large central shapes then become the smaller outside shapes. The positions also switch diagonally. Apply the same idea to the question figure. The small square and rectangle should become the main central shapes, and the large diamond parts should become the small triangles outside. Option B follows this pattern best, so the answer is B.

Correct answer: option D. Look at the three figures on the left. Each one has exactly one line of symmetry. That means each shape can be folded in one way so that both sides match. Now check the options. Option D is the only option that has exactly one line of symmetry. The other options either have more than one line of symmetry or no lines of symmetry. Therefore, the answer is D.

Correct answer: option A. The three figures on the left are all made from four rectangular or square quadrilaterals. Option A is the only figure that has 4 quadrilaterals. Therefore the answer is A.

Correct answer: option A. In all three figures on the left, the two small white circles are placed close to the same corner of the main shape. They sit on two neighbouring sides that meet at that corner. Option A follows the same rule: the two circles are close together near one corner of the shape. In the other options, the circles are too far apart or not placed around the same corner in the same way. Therefore, the answer is A.

Correct answer: option D. Look at the shapes inside each large outer shape. In each figure on the left, there is a smaller outline version of the outer shape, but it is turned the other way. There is also one separate black filled shape. Option D follows this rule. It has a large outer shape, a smaller outline version of that shape inside it, and a separate black filled circle. Therefore, the answer is D.

Correct answer: option B. Each figure on the left has a thick L-shaped corner. There is also a thin line that is parallel to one side of the L-shape, and another thin line crosses it. Option B follows the same pattern. It has the L-shape, a parallel thin line, and a crossing line in the correct arrangement. Therefore, the answer is B.

Correct answer: option A. In each figure on the left, the same type of shape appears three times. One version is the main outline shape, one shaded grey version is in front, and one black version is partly behind. Option A follows exactly the same pattern. It has the same shape repeated as an outline shape, a grey shape, and a black shape. Therefore, the answer is A.

Correct answer: option D. Look at the features that appear in all three figures on the left. Each figure contains a grey circle and a dotted circle. The other shapes may change, but those two features are always present. Option D is the only option that also contains both a grey circle and a dotted circle. Therefore, the answer is D.

Correct answer: option A. This question is about the number of sides. In each figure on the left, the total number of sides adds up to 13. For example, a square has 4 sides, another square has 4 sides, and a pentagon has 5 sides. That gives 4 + 4 + 5 = 13. Now check the options. In option A, the shapes have 3 sides, 5 sides, and 5 sides. That gives 3 + 5 + 5 = 13. So option A follows the same rule. The answer is A.

Correct answer: option E. In the three figures on the left, the shapes overlap or intersect each other, but they are not hidden behind one another. We can still see the outlines clearly where the shapes meet. Option E follows the same rule. The shapes are arranged so that they intersect, and no important part is hidden behind another shape. Therefore, the answer is E.

Correct answer: option E. Look carefully at the two ends of each wavy line. In all three examples on the left, one end of the wavy line points in the opposite direction from the other end. Option E follows this same rule. Its two ends point in opposite directions. In the other options, the ends point in the same direction or do not match the pattern. Therefore, the answer is E.
