    I solved puzzle 36 correctly following this pattern:
    Each colour but gray covers up the space of the square by the amount of their "small squares" inside of them per every horizontally ordered column in this order/amount per bigger square:

    Puzzle 29 is invalid 11:26. It is highly contradictory and B and F are equally likely; I didn't realize the logic you used to get B, but it's as valid as the logic I used to get F. Before I continue, F is the official answer and grants 2 points compared to B. My logic is that the end/sharp points of the top middle pattern, is rotated at the bottom middle so it meets the ends of the middle line, thus the sharp points of the top right pattern lined up with the ends of the middle right pattern yields F. However, this contradicts the logic shown in the left side, in which the edges of the square aren't lined up with the ends of it's middle left modifier pattern, but rather the middle of the square lines are lined up (and this logic applied to the top right pattern isn't a possible answer; it could be argued that it's the middle of the square lines that must line up with the ends of it's modifier because the square is a closed pattern). Both of our answers follows the middle logic but is contradicts the left logic; the left and middle logic are contradictory. The entire test is flawed.

    Puzzle 29: Why rotating? I think it shouldn't be rotated. See the first row. The middle sign is only scaled down and moved to the third picture as the top of the figure. So, if you do the same with the third row, only answer F meets the criteria. Second row is rotated to the left as the middle line is also rotated to the left.

    I solved #36 like this: Imagine that grey color is only on top of the real figure. Tha way, you only have 3 color shapes.Following the diagonal pattern, from top right to bottom left its like colors move one place, from bottom to top, and from left to right. Shape #2 is, from bottom to top, Green, Blue, Red. Next figure on the diagonal is RGB. So, figure 9 should be BRG. Giving "A" as the correct answer.

    Got 135 points, missing 33, 35, 37 and 39. More on them later. Just some points on 25, 26, 36 and 38:
    - 25 is a simple rotation of the dot, then white circle if on top half, black if bottom half.
    - 26 makes no sense, but it's still doable by elimination. The long line being horizontal is easy. The 2 options left are the arrow and the S shape, but the arrow would require one of the small lines teleporting.
    - 36 you can find each color lacks 1 color of each size, leaving you with A or C. But red is the only color that has not been in the center thrice.
    - 38 can't be solved just by the logic shown (black can be in 2 different spots), it's between A or C. But if you look at each row, they are sliding one square to the side, keeping their color patterns consistent. A follows the correct color order.
    As for the ones I got wrong,
    - 33 the S shape is tricky to measure the rotation of, so I misread a 90° tilt as a pattern, when it only required 45°; reasonable problem;
    - 35 still looks like a very weird answer to me, but I can see the logic somewhat;
    - 37 is very reasonable once you see it solved;
    - 39 I had very little time to complete, and the shapes are so cramped together I got lazy and didn't try to follow the explanation on the video, my bad. On a real test (and with time) I would probably do this with a pencil and color the forms to make them easier to tell apart.

      Hey, so the way i imagined it is the second column describes a line of mirroring (or axis of three dimensional rotation).
      To find the "line of mirroring" we have two rules:
      -The line passes through the center of the square.
      -The line passes only through gray area to reach the edge of the square.
      In the first picture of the second column the line has to go from top left to bottom right to only pass through gray area.
      In the second picture of the second column the line has to go from top middle to bottom middle to only pass through gray area.
      (keep in mind that the line has to pass through the middle)
      In the third picture of the second column the line has to go from the top right to the bottom left.
      There is probably a way better to imagine this puzzle but this was the way i did it and it gave the correct solution.
      Just let me know if you are still confused and i'l try to explain it better when i have had some sleep.

    i approached some puzzles differently and in at least case 36 i think my approach was more "straight forward". in line 1 we see blue long, blue short, blue short. in line 2 its red long, red short, red short, we can assume we want green long, green short, green short, but to make sure we can check another instance. line 1, red mid, red long, red mid, line 2 green long, green mid, green mid. we can assume we want blue long, blue mid, blue mid. we can of course check the last shape repeat as well, which is mid + short + long, in line 1 we see that for green, in line 2 for blue, we can expect it for red in line 3. all of these things match with solution A. imo this shape repeat is way simpler approach.

In every row of the general pattern/question, there will be at least 2 squares that follow the pink->red, blue->cyan, black->grey pattern, then they will break in the 3rd square.
      The answer will still be A, but G will be eliminated in step 1 (cuz its very obviously wrong when you spot the red square amongst the cyan and blue) :)
      After elimination i was left with A and C, but took C out because C did not have pink>red.

So after assuming as arrows you have to rotate it to 90 degree. Yes! You will get the last picture . So if I assume the middle third as an arrow and rotate it to 90 degree my answer will be D and yay it does make sense. Also the about the colour as there are two options on the same diagonal A and D you must have noticed that whatever colour is in the first picture gets reversed so our diagonals colour in first is red so it will be blue in third.

    Puzzle 36 how's it moving right to left?

    • @PuzzlesAndSolutions
      @PuzzlesAndSolutions  4 роки тому +2

      You shouldn't be focused on the movement. Here is what i managed to figure out about the movement of the rectangles.
      If we look at the top right to bottom left diagonal, there are two three patterns:
      1: same direction.
      2: swapping of color of rectangles with length long, medium or short in the pattern red -> green -> blue repeating.
      3: swapping of color of rectangles in a given position, right, middle or left in the pattern red -> green -> blue repeating.
      You could think of this as there has to be one of each color in each position or given length.
      For example in the yellow (1, 6, 8) diagonal you could see on the right side there is 1 blue one, 1 green and 1 red rectangle.
      if we look at all the long rectangles along the same diagonal we see there is 1 long blue, 1 lonG red and 1 long green.
      The "Movement" we see has to for fill those rules, leading to two possibilities:
      situation 1:
      position of rectangle corresponds to length of rectangle. This is the case of the main diagonal where the position and length of rectangles is fixed. Hopefully its obvious how this for fills both rules quite easily.
      situation 2:
      shifting of rectangles to right or left along diagonal. Focus on one sized rectangle at the time and we see that the only position which has not been exhausted in the third row will be in the last position it has not been in leading to a shifting pattern.
      example:
      Red Blue Green
      Green Red Blue
      Blue Green Red
      leads to
      (no shift):
      Long Medium Short
      Long Medium Short
      Long Medium Short
      or
      (left shift):
      Long Medium Short
      Medium Short Long
      Short Long Medium
      Just look at the top right to bottom left diagonal in the example and you see how the colors repeat themself in a cyclic manner.
      if we imagine a situation where a rectangle is in the same position twice and then move, then we know that these positions have exhausted 2 of their colors each leaving only 1 color possible per position which is identical to what the rectangles need in order to have every 3 color, therefore they have to stay in the same place and its impossible to stay in place for 2 tiles and then move or any permutation of moving and staying still.
      Hopefully that makes any sense.

      Alteranively, you can consider one single path, from left to right first and then from top to bottom, as in the puzzle 26. The pattern is the same , the dot rotates clockwise and the colors swap every two rotations (or depending if the dot is in the top half or bottom half)

      The first square points "up" because all of the colored bars are touching the "bottom" of the square and extend up depending on how long the bars are.

  • @TheMrTape
    @TheMrTape 3 роки тому

    A lot of these puzzles are flawed and invalid. Several of them contain conflicting logical possibilities, many equally likely. Puzzle 12 at 4:03 for example show a clockwise rotation of the lines as you move diagonally down-right, with 3 data points, leading to C; however it also shows, as the uploader goes by, logic which from just one data point indicates a repeating pattern of diagonal alignment, leading to H. H is statistically the least likely of the two, yet the uploader seems to know it's the solution based on this specific logic apparently being a standard in tests; if that's really the case, he answered correctly based on external knowledge rather than on the test alone and intelligence, and the entire test would be invalid, as it puts standards above the logic it happens to present.
    Edit: Checked and the official answer is H.

      No, u are tripping.
      You can solve it by just reading the lines.
      These are the rules:
      Every line has one horizontal, vertical and diagonal figure.
      And every line has a figure with 1, 2 or 3 lines.
      The only answer that does both things is H, forget rotation.

    • @Mark-en3ig
      @Mark-en3ig 2 роки тому +1

      It cannot be C. There are no lines pointing down. All lines are either up, tilted to the right or flat. While it can look like the pattern you are describing, it only looks like this if you look at the one lines. But the pattern you describe does not apply to f.e the three lines.

      @Mark-en3ig 2 роки тому +1

      The way I solved it: Look at it from left to right. Each time you move to the right, both the colored dots move one square to the right as well. You can see on picture 3 that after the red dot has hidden itself behind the dark square, it changes color. So, on the second last picture, the square you can see is red. It used to be the blue square trailing behind the other blue square in the picture with two blue squares. The other blue colored square is behind the grey square and will change color in the next one, leaving two red squares, as the visible red square will move to a white square and the hidden blue square will move to a white square and therefore change color to red. F is the correct answer.

      No. You will obviously improve your score by repeating the test several times. You should only take an IQ test once as, with anything, practice makes perfect. However you may do better/worse on different tests. IQ tests can sometimes be constructed very differently to one another, and therefore give differing results depending on what puzzles you personally do better at.

      The dots move one space to the right in every picture. The grey square will hide the dot. Once the dot touches the grey square it will change color.
