Correct answer: C. Small half-shaded plus sign, shaded down-left at top right; small solid triangle pointing down at top centre; semicircle pointing left at middle right; small solid pentagon at bottom centre; small triangle pointing down-left at middle left
- A. Small half-shaded plus sign, shaded up-left at top right; small solid triangle pointing down at top centre; semicircle pointing left at middle right; small solid pentagon at bottom centre; small triangle pointing down-left at middle left
- B. Small half-shaded plus sign, shaded up-left at bottom right; small solid triangle pointing up at bottom centre; semicircle pointing left at middle right; small solid pentagon at top centre; small triangle pointing up-left at middle left
- C. Small half-shaded plus sign, shaded down-left at top right; small solid triangle pointing down at top centre; semicircle pointing left at middle right; small solid pentagon at bottom centre; small triangle pointing down-left at middle left
- D. Small half-shaded plus sign, shaded up-right at bottom left; small solid triangle pointing up at bottom centre; semicircle pointing right at middle left; small solid pentagon at top centre; small triangle pointing up-right at middle right
Explanation
Turning the whole figure through a quarter turn anticlockwise moves every element round the centre by the same amount and turns each element with it, so the figure keeps its shape; only its orientation changes. Option C is the only one where every element has changed this way. A has one element moved round with the turn but not turned itself. B is a water image of the turned figure, which no turn can produce. D is the figure turned through a quarter turn clockwise instead.
