Q, R, S and T are cut-out shapes used to create a composition shown in image P. These cut-out shapes could be rotated and combined without overlapping to create the composition. These cut-out shapes can also be repeated. What is/are the correct combination(s) that can be used to create the composition shown in image P?
Show Hint
When creating compositions with cut-out shapes, ensure to count and arrange the shapes carefully based on their rotational symmetry and alignment with the given pattern.
Step 1: Understanding the shapes and composition.
The composition shown in image P can be created by combining the cut-out shapes Q, R, S, and T. The shapes can be rotated and repeated, but they should not overlap. Step 2: Analyzing the options. (A) 1 cut-out of Q, 2 cut-outs of R, 1 cut-out of S, 2 cut-outs of T: This option does not work as it does not match the required repetition of shapes seen in the composition. (B) 2 cut-outs of Q, 1 cut-out of R, 2 cut-outs of S, 2 cut-outs of T: This combination is correct as it successfully matches the pattern shown in image P. (C) 2 cut-outs of Q, 2 cut-outs of R, 1 cut-out of S, 1 cut-out of T: This combination also works, as it matches the required pattern without overlapping. (D) 2 cut-outs of Q, 2 cut-outs of R, 2 cut-outs of S, 1 cut-out of T: This option overuses some shapes and does not match the exact pattern. Step 3: Conclusion.
The correct answers are (B) and (C), as they successfully recreate the composition shown in image P.
