Question

Letters of the alphabet of a font are shown below. The cyan letters H, A and B illustrate how some of them can be folded once to form new shapes. They may be further transformed by rotation. Which of the black shapes given in the options have been folded once and rotated?

• A.
• B.
• C.
• D.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is B, C, D

To determine which of the black shapes in the options are formed by folding and rotating the cyan letters H, A, and B, we will analyze the potential transformations:

1. Letter H: The structure of 'H' allows it to be folded along the vertical mid-line to create a variety of rectangle and symmetrical shapes. By rotating these folded shapes, we can achieve multiple configurations.
2. Letter A: 'A' can be folded along its vertical symmetry line, which could result in a shape resembling a triangle. This triangle can be further rotated to achieve different orientations.
3. Letter B: Folding 'B' vertically can result in duplicate semicircle forms when folded to one side. Rotations of these forms can lead to overlapping circular shapes.

Now, compare these transformations with the options:

Analyzing these options, we find:

1. The second option could result from the folding and rotating of letter B, due to its round, symmetric features.
2. The third option looks like a rotation of a folded version of the letter A, forming a triangle-like shape.
3. The fourth option appears to result from folding and rotating the letter H, producing a rectangular configuration.

Therefore, the correct answers are Option 2, Option 3, and Option 4, confirming the transformations through folding and rotation of the letters A, B, and H respectively.
