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)
2D: Triangle :: 3D :
Shape Analogy Explained
This question asks us to identify a relationship between the first pair of words (2D : Triangle) and apply that same relationship to the third word (3D) to find the fourth word.
Understanding the 2D Relationship
- 2D refers to two dimensions (length and width).
- Triangle is a specific example of a shape that exists in two dimensions.
The relationship is: Dimensionality : Specific Example Shape.
Applying the Relationship to 3D
We need to find a specific three-dimensional (3D) shape that relates to "3D" in the same way "Triangle" relates to "2D".
Analyzing the Options
- Square: This is a 2D shape.
- Rectangle: This is also a 2D shape.
- Figure: This is a general term, not a specific 3D shape.
- Hemisphere: This is a specific 3D shape (half of a sphere).
Conclusion
The option that represents a specific 3D shape is Hemisphere. Therefore, the analogy is completed as 3D : Hemisphere.

Select the set in which the numbers are related in the same way as are the numbers of the following sets.
(NOTE: Operations should be performed on the whole numbers, without breaking down the numbers into their constituent digits. E.g., 13 – Operations on 13 such as adding/subtracting/multiplying etc. to 13, can be performed. Breaking down 13 into 1 and 3 and then performing mathematical operations on 1 and 3 is not allowed.)
