Spatial Reasoning test questions assess your ability to mentally manipulate images. This Spatial reasoning test assesses your ability to think about objects in both two and three dimensions, and draw conclusions to those objects from limited information.
Practise with our Spatial Resoning test questions to help you know what to expect, improve your speed and confidence and be really prepared for the actual test.
What is the number of straight lines and the number of triangles in the given figure.
10 straight lines and 34 triangles
9 straight lines and 34 triangles
9 straight lines and 36 triangles
10 straight lines and 36 triangles
Correct answer is C
The figure may be labelled as shown.
The Horizontal lines are DF and BC i.e. 2 in number.
The Vertical lines are DG, AH and FI i.e. 3 in number.
The Slanting lines are AB, AC, BF and DC i.e. 4 in number.
Thus, there are 2 + 3 + 4 = 9 straight lines in the figure.
Now, we shall count the number of triangles in the figure.
The simplest triangles are ADE, AEF, DEK, EFK, DJK, FLK, DJB, FLC, BJG and LIC i.e. 10 in number.
The triangles composed of two components each are ADF, AFK, DFK, ADK, DKB, FCK, BKH, KHC, DGB and FIC i.e. 10 in number.
The triangles composed of three components each are DFJ and DFL i.e. 2 in number.
The triangles composed of four components each are ABK, ACK, BFI, CDG, DFB, DFC and BKC i.e. 7 in number.
The triangles composed of six components each are ABH, ACH, ABF, ACD, BFC and CDB i.e. 6 in number.
There is only one triangle i.e. ABC composed of twelve components.
There are 10 + 10 + 2 + 7 + 6+ 1 = 36 triangles in the figure.
Find the minimum number of straight lines required to make the given figure.

Correct answer is B
The figure may be labelled as shown.
The horizontal lines are AK, BJ, CI, DH and EG i.e. 5 in number.
The vertical lines are AE, LF and KG i.e. 3 in number.
The slanting lines are LC, CF, FI, LI, EK and AG i.e. 6 in number.
Thus, there are 5 + 3 + 6 = 14 straight lines in the figure.

Correct answer is C
The figure may be labelled as shown.
The simplest triangles are ABG, BIG, BIC, CIH, GIH, CDH, HED, GHJ, HJE, FEJ, GFJ and AGF i.e. 12 in number.
The triangles composed of two components each are ABF, CDE, GBC, BCH, GHG, BHG, GHF, GHE, HEF and GEF i.e. 10 in number.
The triangles composed of three components each are ABH, AFH, CDG and GDE i.e. 4 in number.
The triangles composed of four components each are BHF and CGE i.e. 2 in number.
Total number of triangles in the figure = 12 + 10 + 4 + 2 = 28.
Find the number of triangles in the given figure.

Correct answer is C
The figure may be labelled as shown.
The simplest triangles are AEI, AIH, BEJ, BJF, CFK, CKG, DGL, DLH, EOJ, FOJ, FOG, LOG, HOL and HOE i.e. 14 in number.
The triangles composed of two components each are EAH, FBE, BEO, EOF, BFO, FCG, GDH, HOD, HOG and GOD i.e. 10 in number.
The triangles composed of three components each are EFH, EHG, FGH and EFG i.e. 4 in number.
Thus, there are 14 + 10 + 4 = 28 triangles in the given figure.

Correct answer is B
The figure may be labelled as shown.
The simplest triangles are BFG, CGH, EFM, FMG, GMN, GHN, HNI, LMK, MNK and KNJ i.e. 10 in number.
The triangles composed of three components each are FAK and HKD i.e. 2 in number.
The triangles composed of four components each are BEN, CMI, GLJ and FHK i.e. 4 in number.
The triangles composed of eight components each are BAJ and OLD i.e. 2 in number.
Thus, there are 10 + 2 + 4 + 2 = 18 triangles in the given figure.
