In an Assembling Objects 'connector' problem, you are shown shapes with labeled points (like A and B) and a line connecting them. What must the correct answer show?

Correct answer

The same shapes connected by a line at exactly the labeled points (A to A, B to B), with shapes possibly rotated but not changed in size or form

  1. A The shapes melted together
  2. B The same shapes connected by a line at exactly the labeled points (A to A, B to B), with shapes possibly rotated but not changed in size or form
  3. C Completely different shapes
  4. D Only one of the shapes

Why this is the answer

In CONNECTOR problems, the correct answer shows the SAME shapes joined by a line connecting the EXACT labeled points (the dot/line attaches at point A on one shape and point B on the other). ASVAB Assembling Objects tests spatial reasoning. The shapes may be ROTATED or repositioned, but they must be the SAME shapes (same size and form), connected at the correct points by the line. ELIMINATE answers that: use different shapes, connect at the wrong points, or change shape sizes. Carefully checking that the line attaches at the labeled points on the correct shapes is the key skill.
