Letts NVR paper B section 5 q5

Post by Tinkers »

It's a question with two random shapes each with a black circle and white triangle inside.
Why is the answer B?
The only thing I can see is that the curve doesn't have straight bit to it but it's subtle in answer e.
Am I right or missing something?

With these, I always think its best to not look at the answer options initially, but spend a few seconds working out at least 2 firm connections between the 2 objects. Object 1 = semi circle, 1 straight line, wiggly bit, a small white triangle inside, a small black circle inside. Object 2 = semi circle, 2 straight lines, a small white triangle inside and a small black circle inside. Connection = a semi circle, atleast 1 straight line, a small black circle inside and a small white triangle inside. Cant be (a), (c) or (e) - no semi circle (whilst 'e' has a curved bit at the bottom its side extend beyond a semi circle, cant be (d) as no straight line, (b) has a semi circle, 3 straight lines and the 2 shapes so answer (b).
