Non Verbal Reasoning Constructing 3D Figures

Non-verbal reasoning questions on constructing 3D figures test a student’s ability to visualize shapes in three dimensions and understand how various parts fit together. Here’s a breakdown of common question types and techniques to help students prepare.

1. Cube and Net Construction

Description: Students are given the net of a 3D shape (usually a cube) and must determine how it will look when folded into a 3D figure.
Tips: Teach students to look for opposite and adjacent faces. Identifying patterns, such as where certain numbers or colors will end up once folded, can be helpful.
Example Question: Which of these options can be folded into a cube with opposite faces matching?

2. Finding Hidden Views

Description: Students are shown a 3D figure from one perspective and must choose which option represents the figure from another angle.
Tips: Encourage students to mentally rotate the figure and to focus on fixed parts, such as unique markings or shapes, that might appear in different positions from different viewpoints.
Example Question: Here is a 3D shape from the front view. Which option shows what it would look like from the left side?

3. Completing 3D Shapes

Description: These questions ask students to determine the missing part of a 3D shape.
Tips: Help students identify how each piece connects based on alignment and patterns of the other shapes.
Example Question: Given these three sides of a cube, which of the following completes the figure?

4. 3D Rotations

Description: In these questions, students see a 3D shape and need to visualize how it looks after being rotated.
Tips: Practice simple rotations first, like rotating a cube 90 degrees, to build spatial awareness.
Example Question: If this shape is rotated 90 degrees clockwise, which option shows the new view?

5. Building with Blocks

Description: Students are given a set of blocks and asked to determine what the arrangement would look like from various angles.
Tips: Encourage students to build up from a “base” layer and imagine what blocks lie behind, above, or to the side.
Example Question: From the front view, the structure looks like this. Which option shows the structure from the top view?
