In figure completion, one part of a figure is missing and you choose the piece that completes the pattern. Most such figures are symmetric, so the missing part is a mirror image of a part you can see.
Method
- Find the lines of symmetry: the vertical middle, the horizontal middle, or the diagonals.
- Take the quarter next to the gap and mirror it across the line that separates them.
- Compare the options one line at a time. Wrong options are usually the same piece flipped the other way or rotated.
