- A. Solid semicircle pointing left at bottom left; semicircle pointing up at centre; half-shaded plus sign, shaded right at top right; small solid triangle pointing down-left at bottom right
- B. Solid semicircle pointing right at top right; semicircle pointing down at centre; half-shaded plus sign, shaded left at bottom left; small solid triangle pointing up-right at top left
- C. Solid semicircle pointing up at top right; semicircle pointing down at centre; half-shaded plus sign, shaded left at bottom left; small solid triangle pointing up-right at top left
- D. Solid semicircle pointing right at bottom right; semicircle pointing up at centre; half-shaded plus sign, shaded left at top left; small solid triangle pointing down-right at bottom left
Explanation
Turning the whole figure through a quarter turn clockwise 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 B is the only one where every element has changed this way. A is the figure turned through a quarter turn anticlockwise instead. C has one element moved round with the turn but not turned itself. D is a water image of the turned figure, which no turn can produce.
