Cubes and Dice - Verbal and Reasoning

Directions to SolveThe sheet of paper shown in the figure (X) given on the left hand side, in each problem, is folded to form a box. Choose from amongst the alternatives (1), (2), (3) and (4), the boxes that are similar to the box that will be formed.
Q1:

Choose the box that is similar to the box formed from the given sheet of paper (X).

A 1 and 2 only

B 1, 2 and 3 only

C 1 and 3 only

D 1, 2, 3 and 4

ANS:A - 1 and 2 only

The fig. (X) is similar to the Form VI. So, when a cube is formed by folding the sheet shown in fig. (X), then is one of the faces of the cube and this face lies opposite to a blank face. Also, a face bearing a circle lies opposite to one bearing a dot. Clearly, this cube does not have faces as shown in the cubes in figures (3) and (4). Hence, only the cubes shown in figures (1) and (2) can be formed.
