The series alternates two logical sequences:


- in odd to even diagrams (and therefore in the answer diagram): the short arrow
rotates 45° clockwise; the long arrow does not move;
- in even to odd diagrams: the long arrow rotates 45° anticlockwise; the short
arrow does not move,

The series alternates two logical sequences:
- in odd to even diagrams (and therefore in the answer diagram): the heart-
changes colour; the triangle changes size; the number of points on the star
increases;
- in even to odd diagrams: the spiral rotates 90° clockwise on itself; the heart
rotates 45° anticlockwise on itself; the triangle changes colour; the star changes
colour and its number of points decreases.

Each diagram contains alternately 5 petals (in odd diagrams) or 6 petals (in even

The series alternates two logical sequences:


- in odd to even diagrams (and therefore in the answer diagram): the elements
undergo a permutation along a diagonal axis running from the top left corner;
- in even to odd diagrams: the elements move one position to the right23,

This is a series with instructions. The instructions are given by the external element:
the shape of the external element corresponds to the shape of the central element
in the next diagram. It is also reflected along the central horizontal axis.
The two elements also change colour according to the following sequences:
- external element: grey, black, white, grey, black, and therefore white;
- central element: white, grey, black, white, grey, and therefore black.

•A
We can see similarities between the following pairs of diagrams:
- diagrams 1 and 2;
- diagrams 3 and 4;
- and therefore diagram 5 and the answer diagram.

For each pair, the logical sequence is the same: the figure Is reflected along the
central horizontal axis and the colours are reversed.
Each line rotates 45° anticlockwise every three diagrams. Rotations occur
succession. The sequences are as follows:
- plain line: stationary, stationary, rotation, stationary, therefore stationary;
- dashed line; stationary, rotation, stationary, stationary, therefore rotation;
- dotted line: rotation, stationary, stationary, rotation, therefore stationary.

We can see similarities between the following sets of 3 diagrams:
- diagrams 1, 2 and 3;
- diagrams 4, 5 and therefore the answer diagram.

In each case:
- the first letter does not change;
- the other three letters move forward one position each time24.

Each odd diagram (and therefore the answer diagram) contains 4 black elements
and 1 white element, Each even diagram contains 2 black elements and 2 white
elements.

The series alternates two logical sequences:


- in odd to even diagrams (and therefore in the answør diagram): all the elements
rotate clockwise around the centre of the diagram (90° for the quarter circle
and the triangle and 45° for the square); the gdarter circle changes size;
- in even to odd diagrams: the square rotates/150 clockwise on itself; the quarter
circle changes colour, /*

Alternative method (giobal approach ;V>Rising on ¡ho poomon of rho square):


We look at the odd series and the f<ien seríes separately, In both cases, the
sequence is as follows: the square çk5es not move; the triangle and the quarter
circle rotate a quarter turn clockwis^around the centre of the diagram; the quarter
circle changes size and colour, /

- circle 3: grey, white, white, grey, white, and therefore white;
- circle 4: white, grey, black, white, grey, and therefore black,

Moreover, the central shape is a triangle in the odd diagrams (it is hidden by the

The series alternates two logical sequences:
- in odd to even diagrams (and therefore in the answer diagram): all the elements
rotate clockwise around the centre of the diagram (90° for the quarter circle
and the triangle and 45° for the square); the quarter circle changes size;
- in even to odd diagrams: the square rotates 45° clockwise on itself; the quarter

Alternative method (global approach focusing on if íe poohon of the square):


We look at the odd series and the even series separately. In both cases, the
sequence is as follows: the square does not move; the triangle and the quarter
circle rotate a quarter turn clockwise around the centre of the diagram; the quarter
circle changes size and colour.

Each circle changes colour as follows (circle 1 being the outermost circle and
circle 4 being the innermost);
- circle 1 : grey, white, black, grey, white, and therefore black;
- circle 2: white, grey, white, grey, white, and therefore white;
- circle 3: grey, white, white, grey, white, and therefore white;
- circle 4: white, grey, black, white, grey, and therefore black.

Moreover, the central shape is a triangle in the odd diagrams (it is hidden by the
black circle in diagram 3) and a star in the even diagrams.

P· \

The elements in the middle move one position clockwise each time around the
centre of the diagram. The black squares move one position anticlockwise each
time around the centre of the diagram.

Che central arrow rotates 45 ' clockwise on itself and changes colour each time,
The other arrows are transformed following two alternating logical sequences:
- in odd to even diagrams (and therefore In the answer diagram): the peripheral
arrows rotate 90° clockwise around the centre of the diagram;
- even to odd diagrams: the Intermediary arrows rotate 180" clockwise around
the centre of fhe diagram; the peripheral arrows change colour,

We can see similarities between trie following pairs of diagrams:


- diagrams 1 and 2;
- diagrams 3 and 4;
- diagram 5 and therefore answer diagram.

In each case, the two black shapes move to the centre of the diagram,

The series alternates between two logical sequences:


- in odd to even diagrams (and therefore in the answer diagram): all the elements
rotate 90° clockwise around the centre of the diagram;
- in even to odd diagrams: the arrow rotates around itself by 45° anticlockwise;
the two triangles change colour.

The series alternates two logical sequences:


- In odd to even diagrams (and therefore in the answer diagram): the black
rectangle does not move; fhe grey rectangle moves towards the opposite side
of fhe diagram;
- In even to odd diagrams: fhe black rectangle moves down one position; the
grey rectangle moves 90° clockwise around the centre of the diagram,

fhe grey rectangle always covers fhe black rectangle,

All the elements rotate clockwise around the centre of the diagram in different
sequences:
- the square moves 90° each, time;
- the triangle alternates two positions: top right corner (in odd diagrams) and
bottom left corner (in even diagrams);
- the circle moves 90° every three diagrams (in diagram 3 to diagram 4);
- the diamond moves 90° every two diagrams (in odd to even diagrams),

This is α series with instructions, The instructions are given by the squares in the top
l'ine: /
- white square: the elements move down one space25; /
- black square: the elements move up one space25; /
- grey square: the elements change colour,

The series alternates two logical sequences:


in odd to even diagrams (and theref« 'e in the answer diagram): the black
squares are reflected along the vertic axis in the centre;
in even to odd diagrams: the black şrjuares move down by one space; when a
square is at the bottom, it returns to4he top in the next diagram.

The grey and the black squaręś move one space clockwise each time around the
centre of the diagram, /

The series alternates t^/o logical sequences:


- in odd to even diagrams (and therefore in the answer diagram): the elements
are reflected qfong the central horizontal axis;
- in even to odd' diagrams: the elements are reflected along the diagonal running
from the top'right corner,

The series/alternates two logical sequences:


- in oc/d to even diagrams (and therefore in the answer diagram): each element
mqfes forward one position towards the right26; the square and the triangle
