Question

Select the option that is related to the third word in the same way as the second word is related to the first word.

(The words must be considered as meaningful English words and must not be related to each other based on the number of letters/number of consonants/vowels in the word)

Colour: Green :: Figure: ?

The correct answer is
Triangle

The question presents an analogy: Colour : Green :: Figure : ?

Understanding the Analogy Relationship

The relationship between the first pair (Colour : Green) needs to be identified. 'Green' is a specific example or a type of 'Colour'.

Applying the Relationship to the Second Pair

We need to find a word that represents a specific example or type of 'Figure' in the same way 'Green' relates to 'Colour'.

  • Angle: Refers to the space between intersecting lines or surfaces. It's a measurement or concept, not a figure itself.
  • Diagonal: A straight line connecting two non-adjacent vertices of a polygon or polyhedron. It's a part of a figure.
  • Triangle: A specific type of geometric shape, which is a 'Figure'.
  • Point: Represents a location in space, a fundamental concept but not typically a 'figure' in the context of shapes.

Identifying the Correct Figure

Comparing the options, 'Triangle' is the most appropriate answer as it is a specific instance of a geometric 'Figure', similar to how 'Green' is a specific instance of a 'Colour'.

Therefore, the analogy is completed as: Colour : Green :: Figure : Triangle.
