Non Verbal Series - Five Figures

Non-Verbal Series: It consists a series of figures which change according to a fixed logical pattern as we go from one figure to the next. The candidate is identify the pattern and then choose the figure from the options which would be the next to continue the same pattern. Let us consider a few examples to clarify the things.

Five Figure Series: This types of problems on series consists of five figures forming the set of Problem figures, followed by four other figures forming the set of Answer Figures . The five consecutive Problem Figures form a definite sequence and the candidate is required to select one of the figures from the set of Answer Figures which will continue the same sequence.

Illustration: The problem figures consists of five figures. Find out which one of the options continue the same series as established by the five problem  figures.

A

B

C

D

Answer : A

Solution: On analysing the question figure we find that the arcs are being inverted in the sequence of one, two, three, one, two, three, ....  This inversion takes place in an anti clockwise direction.

  • The second figure is obtained by inverting one arc of the first figure in anticlockwise direction.
  • Third figure is obtained by inverting two arcs of the second figure in anticlockwise direction.
  • Fourth figure is obtained by inverting three arcs of the third figure in anticlockwise direction.
  • Fifth figure is obtained by inverting one arc of the fourth figure in anticlockwise direction.
  • So the answer figure will be obtained by inverting two arcs of the fifth figure in anticlockwise direction.
  • The figure so obtained is given in option A.

    Hence option A is the correct answer.

    Illustration: The problem figures consists of five figures. Find out which one of the options continue the same series as established by the five problem  figures.

    A

    B

    C

    D

    Answer: D.

    Solution: On analysing the question figure we find that one slanting line is added as we move from one figure to another

  • First figure contains one forward slanting line.
  • Second figure is obtained by adding one backward slanting line.
  • Third figure is obtained by adding one forward slanting line crossing the backward slanting line.
  • Fourth figure is obtained by adding one backward slanting line.
  • Fifth figure is obtained by adding one forward slanting line crossing the backward slanting line.
  • The next figure will be obtained by adding one backward slanting line.
  • Figure in option D satisfies this condition.Hence D is the correct option.
