Here are three abstract thinking puzzles that all ask the same question: Which shape goes in the box?
Abstract thinking (or abstract reasoning) is the ability to recognize a collection of features that go together to create an idea or category of ideas and to see patterns.
Puzzle 1
Puzzle 2
Puzzle 3
Answers:
Puzzle 1:
The answer is D.
The shape on the bottom has twice as many sides as the one above it and the arrow points
the same direction.
Puzzle 2:
The answer is C. Each of the boxes on top has 2 red squares, 2 green circles and a yellow
triangle. C is the only choice that has the same set of shapes.
Puzzle 3:
The answer is C. There are three things going on here:
1: The center square alternates between filled in and empty.
2. The green circle rotates clockwise around the corners.
3. The blue circle alternative between a counterclockwise and a clockwise movement at
45 degrees WHILE increasing by 1 the number of positions moved.
