Three of the following four figures are alike in a certain way and thus form a group. Which figure DOES NOT belong to that group?
D
In odd-one-out figure sets, each box often shows the same small symbol drawn several times, turning by a fixed angle in the same direction from one copy to the next. The odd figure breaks that turning rule.
Step 1 — Figure A shows a pin with a dot at one end and an arrowhead at the other, drawn three times from bottom-left to top-right: arrow pointing up, then down-left, then right. Each step turns the symbol 135° anticlockwise (up → down-left → right).
Step 2 — Figure B shows a small circle joined to a square: circle-to-square pointing right, then up-left, then down. Again each step is a 135° anticlockwise turn.
Step 3 — Figure C shows a triangle with a dotted semicircle at its tip: the semicircle-to-triangle direction is down-right, then up, then down-left. Again each step is a 135° anticlockwise turn.
Step 4 — Figure D shows an S-shaped curve with a shaded half-circle. Measured from the hollow curl to the shaded half, the symbol points down-right, then roughly right, then down. The first step turns it only about 45° anticlockwise and the second turns it about 90° clockwise, so it does not follow the uniform 135° anticlockwise turn seen in the other three.
Figures A, B and C share the same rotation rule, so none of them is the odd one.
D option is correct.
